I need to install fat binaries because our products are developer
tools for Flash.
For example we have a screen saver creation tool (used in fact by
Apple among others) It need to create FAT screen savers regardless of
the OS it is run on, as they may be installed on Intel or PPC machines.
So it is OK for the main app to be stripped, but there are other Fat
binaries in the package that need to remain fat - I even tried
renaming one and it still got stripped. I'm very happy to have a
solution, but I think this really is a bug in the 10.3.9 installer app.

No. I can understand how that'd be convenient for you, but I'm
still curious why you need to install fat binaries on 10.3?

Is there a way in packageMaker to set IFPkgFlagInstallFat=true as
the default, or do I need to manually edit every installer I build?
I poked around in the apps bundle but could not find it there...

In the Package's Info.plist file, you can set the flag
IFPkgFlagInstallFat to true. I can't take credit for discovering
this "feature". A colleague did.

Also note, IFPkgFlagInstallFat is ignored on 10.4:
