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.

If we can assume that the other FAT binaries are "templates" for screen savers and libraries (such as the Flash one), one solution could be to install them as zip archive and them unzip them either in a postflight script or from within the main application when it's first launched.
