This from the BLM, a list of comments and responses:

Here's a section on wheelbarrows from the above:
BLM’s position is that we must include wheeled game carriers or  
wheelbarrows in the definition of mechanical transport, or it will  
conflict with the letter and spirit of the Wilderness Act. This  
position is also consistent with Forest Service policy. Trail work is  
an administrative function that is adequately addressed in section 4 
(c) of the Wilderness Act. This section allows BLM to use the minimum  
tools necessary for such administrative work.

I agree that the Dixon Roller Pack might be more trouble than it's  
worth on the PCT. I think you'd do better to find out how much the  
fellow can carry and have his buddies help carry the rest.
