does the prebinding daemon change our libs ?

Our app links quite a few private frameworks and plugins, which are stored within the app bundle.
If a user installs this on a different OS version, or for some other reason the pre-binding daemon sees fit to fix our app, does it actually modify the libraries themselves, or does it store this information elsewhere ?


We have an automatic update mechanism which patches our libraries and frameworks to update them when new releases are available, and the problem we've just realised is that if the prebinding daemon has messed with our libraries in the meantime the patching process will almost certainly mess up and produce a completely scrambled library as a result.

If the daemon does change the lib, are the changes confined to an easily identifiable portion of the file - if they were then maybe we could change our patcher so that it always replaced that portion of the file, rather than patching it.
