Custom icon for bundle?

Maybe I'm being dense, but I can't seem to get a custom icon to appear for a bundle. I've done this before for an application, which worked fine, but it seems that maybe there's something different about doing this for a bundle? I have the .icns file in the project and it is copied correctly into the Resources folder of the output bundle. The Info.plist file has a CFBundleIconFile entry with the name of the .icns file, and the CFBundleSignature is set to my creator code. There is a PkgInfo file with the type and creator codes in it. Basically it looks pretty much exactly like my application package, but no custom icon shows up. Instead, I get the "standard" icon for bundles with my particular file extension (this is a plugin that can be loaded in different host apps, and the plugin SDK specifies that the bundle's filename must have a certain extension). It seems as though something in the Launch Services database is overriding my specified icon, but I thought it should be the other way around. I've logged out/restarted/etc and no change. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jim
