Perhaps your Launch Services db needs a rebuild? Try this in

I had this happen after I booted from a Leopard seed and went to
open a project. Took me a few seconds to realize that I had not yet
installed Xcode on that volume, so Finder didn't know that
a .xcodeproj was supposed to be a package.
Alas, this didn't seem to have any appreciable effect.

Nah, the extension is still just ".xcodeproj". Is there anything
else that makes a package a package? The one in question contains
four files:
project.pbxproj
ted.mode1
ted.mode2
ted.pbxuser
Is there some Finder flag I need to set, or am I being too old
school?
There is the 'bundle bit'. See 'man SetFile'. But Xcode.app does not
set the bundle bit on projects it creates, which is why .xcodeproj's
appear as folders on machines that do not have Xcode.
Okay, I set the bundle bit and, after logged out and returning, the
project was looking like a single file again, albeit one with a blank
icon. I told it in Get Info to open up under Xcode, and now
everything seems to be fine, though it looks like I will have to go
and set the bundle bit on all my other projects. (Fortunately, there
aren't too many yet, since I'm gradually working my way over from
CodeWarrior.)
I can't help but think I need to do the OS X equivalent of rebuilding
the desktop, whatever that might be. Maybe I'll fire up Onyx and
start hitting some buttons...
