Frameworks inside applications

I'm trying to include a framework inside my application.

The application links against the framework just fine, and I've added a Copy Files build phase that successfully copies the framework to the Frameworks directory in my app's Contents directory.

Problem is, the dynamic loader doesn't seem to find the framework:

dyld: /Users/pete/Code/Scratch/Sub/build/Sub.app/Contents/MacOS/Sub can't open library: /Users/pete/Library/Frameworks/XML.framework/Versions/A/XML (No such file or directory, errno = 2)

If I set DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH manually and run the app from the shell it works just fine, but obviously this isn't acceptable for an installed application.

Does anyone know the magic incantation that I need to have the app search its own Frameworks directory for frameworks?

On a related note, is there an easy way to strip the Headers directory from the framework while copying it into my application's Frameworks directory? I figure the worst case is that I just add a Shell Script build phase and use good old rm.

If I can sort this one out, I'll write up and post a little article on how to manage the source code of your own frameworks and have them easily included in your different applications. I've come up with what I think is quite a nice way of doing this using CVS and a couple of simple Makefiles.
