Hallo, Marcel!

@executable_path is a hack too :-)

With quite nasty side effects, too.

- Linking isn't transitive any longer, so you have to manually link
to indirectly referenced frameworks
- this turns framework reference into an n^2 process, discouraging
modularity
- Spurious linker warnings
- hides real problems
- No way to create/use umbrella frameworks
- another factor discouraging modularity
- Difficulties with pre-binding
- not that much of a problem, but hey, this should just work...

I think Apple should be made aware of this issues and that we are directly affected.

Could you file a bug report (enhancement request)?

Regards,
Dirk
