[Flat packages] Build issue with preinstall/postinstall scripts in PackageMaker 3

When you build a Flat package, you can specify additional resources and postinstall/preinstall scripts.

Build weakness:
---------------

If your resources folder contains at its first level a file named 'postinstall', and you set a postinstall script, your post installation script will be replaced by the file from the resources folder.

Not a common case, but still a bug and potential issue as it's not the script you think you were using that will get run.
