Let's remove the Mountain word from the question because it's still
under NDA and let's imagine you tested in on Mac OS X 10.6 or 10.7.

Possible explanation for this message:

- your plugin binary only includes the i386 architecture (32-bit).
Installer.app runs in 64-bit mode. It can not load 32-bit code and
execute it. So it has to quit and then force itself to run in 32-bit
mode.

For the record, you have to build you plugin on Mac OS X 10.6 to be
able to add the x86_64 architecture.
