Extra libraries, desktop folder with FileVault 10.4

Since 10.3.9 (I think) I have had a problem with folders creating themselves outside of the sparse image for my FileVaults directories. Their appearance and functionality varies, but I have now got an extra desktop in my regular user space. It does not show up in Finder windows’ left column, but it does show up in Save and Save As dialogues. Inside of user folders there are a Library folder outside of the user sparse image, only visible for accounts I am not currently in. This Library folder consistently has a Fonts folder, but also other folders, like preferences.

I am running 10.4.1 now, with Suitcase 11.0.4.0223.

Anyone else who has seen this, or know what could cause it and how to remedy it?
 
The double-desktop icons in window sidebars fixed by trashing following pref files. This happened to me under Panther, so I do not know for sure if all this holds true for Tiger. I do not recal off hand what causes the double desktops.
