So at this point I'm still apparently successfully blocking the 6.3 update.
I'm hoping to not have to re-root from scratch after I bite the bullet and manually do the update. My plan is to stuff /system/xbin/su someplace that will preserve the permissions and not get blown away by the update. Then after the update I can merely run my preserved su to become root and put su back in /system/xbin (and remove the new root check). I can reinstall the superuser apk if needed, but I don't think it'll go anywhere. I THINK that will keep me "rooted". At the very least it will preserve what I need to put the GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk back in place so my google calendar will work.
My Market survived 2 or 3 previous software updates. Not sure what the differentiating factor is there - maybe it depends on what apk you started out with and whether it had been updated in the past.
