Kexts historically need all of their contents set to the proper
permissions otherwise the kernel will blech when it tries to match
against a device. I've set the top-most level of the kext (which is
really just a bundle) to the proper permissions, but the underlying
content (Contents/*) don't get the proper permissions. I'm going to
stick with a BASH script for the time being, but I'm hoping to
eventually figure out (or file enough RADARs) PackageMaker 3 to
achieve the results I want.

I've been using Iceberb, but I can't seem to set the permissions

I am not doing kexts, but am not having that sort of problem. Are
you setting the permissions from within Iceberg? Or are you trying
to get them right on the file before bringing it in? And if you just
have a single bundle or folder and grab just the top piece of it and
assign a setting to it, everything else underneath will get settings
based on that. I especially like the way Iceberg does it because I
can grab the root of my .app, and it will also take along new files
in my bundle (or handle deletions just fine).
