I guess it wasn't clear to me that I didn't have to download the tools 
package from the developer site.  After re-reading the instructions, I 
see that I would only have to do what you said.

Maybe it would be clearer:

- Before 10.9:
   - Download the tools
   - Install it
- For 10.9 or later:
   - touch, softwareupdate, rm

The softwareupdate approach seems same complexity as rm && xcodeselect 
--install, so no point in making any changes.
