Prevent running in Rosetta

Hej,

We will provide Universal Binaries, or at least native versions, of our applications for the new i386 machines. We would at the same time like to ensure that no customer of ours can run an old ppc binary on i386 by accident.
Our app is huge and complex, and initial testing indicates that it doesn't work 100% OK in Rosetta. We don't want to spend any resources in making it work in Rosetta, or dealing with bug reports from customers using it in Rosetta.

Is there a way to easily prevent an application from running in Rosetta? It seems to me that there should be an Info.plist key to control this, but I can't find it. There is a key to make an app run in Rosetta (LSPrefersPPC ), but the inverse functionality seems to be missing.
I would love to NOT have to implement some sort of runtime hack fo ensure this, but if that's the only way to do it, I will - and in that case I would appreciate suggestions / sample code if you've tried this already.

Thanx,

j o a r
