The easiest thing to do is delete LSItemContentTypes from your Info.plist.  Alternately, compiling against the 10.4 SDK should give you the 10.4 behavior.  For those of us who added LSItemContentTypes and tried to use UTIs in Tiger, the situation in NSDocument/NSDocumentController sucks; I finally just removed LSItemContentTypes.  

Personally I think the number of deprecated methods in NSDocument/NSDocumentController is out of control, since your open/save/export code paths change depending on OS, SDK, and existing overrides.

You have to hand-edit Info.plist to add it, as far as I know.
