Also Mac, but using emacs from homebrew
,----
| GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin12.4.0, NS apple-appkit-1187.39) of 2013-09-05 on Rainers-MacBook-Pro.local

I followed this with interest, as I have the same problem. Replacing the
file with a link, worked for the help via the org-mode menu, but I can't
find it in the top level of the info files. Is there anything I have to
do in addition?
My Info-directory-list is as follow:
,----
| ("/Users/rainerkrug/.emacs.d/elpa/auctex-11.87" "/Users/rainerkrug/.emacs.d/elpa/magit-20130902.311" "/Users/rainerkrug/.emacs.d/elpa/w3m-20130902.1802" "/usr/local/info/" "/usr/share/info/")
`----
and I have the org info file in /usr/local/info :
,----
| $ ls /usr/share/info/or*
| /usr/share/info/org /usr/share/info/org-1.bak /usr/share/info/org-2.bak /usr/share/info/org.bak
`----
Even before putting the link in, the org info was not in the top level
info.
Any suggestions? As far as I though, info would scan the directories to
generate the info tree?

I have a link in my .emacs.d (named org-mode) which I link to the latest
version in separate directories (org-VERSIONNUMBER ang org-git). So I
can easily switch, and the link would stay there.
