My bad, I mis-interpreted your original email to mean that if you
launch the app on the build machine and then package it, then the
problem does not appear.  I see now that you were just proving that
the app worked.

If it's indeed a problem that is specific to that folder, what if you
put something else in there, like say, Firefox?  Will Firefox not
load?  If you deploy the app directly to the Applications folder
without the subdirectory, does it error?

Might be time to dust off your one of your developer tech support incidents.
