Thanks, will do.

And regarding Jeremy's note about the 2 libraries can't be loaded, those are Input Manager plugins that have nothing to do with my app.

But I'm happy to say that I eventually found the cause of my problem. One of the frameworks I was using was compiled using "i386 ppc" set as the architecture. Setting this to "Standard (32-bit/64-bit Universal)" and recompiling the framework fixed it. Xcode seems to launch the app in 32 bit mode whether its in Debug or Release (because I have the Active Architecture set to i386). When launched from Finder, the app launches in 64 bit mode, and since that framework was not compiled with the x86_64 architecture it screwed up the app.

Hope this helps anyone else that runs into this issue.
