system.run, Flat distribution, embedded scripts, bug and minimum OS version

If you are using system.run for an installation, volume or choice requirement and want to use a script within the flat distribution:

. This only works on Mac OS X 10.6.x.

. You need to put the script(s) in a 'Scripts' pax archive at the same level as the Distribution file (within the xar archive).

. This absolutely does _NOT_ work on Mac OS X 10.5. If you try to run such a flat distribution in Leopard, the installation will fail with an exception raised by Installer.app. This is both a bug and a regression. (Bug ID# 7724951)
