Thanks for writing guys. Nothing was showing up in the Console, but I did discover something new. If I change my app so it only builds for i386 and x86_64 (ie. no ppc), then the problem goes away. I can't imagine what the heck could be going on behind the scenes such that the app has issues loading a bundle when the app happens to contain a ppc fork (despite that the host system is an intel Mac). Argh, strange!!
So in short: the presence of ppc causes the app to fail to load our bundle.
