Doesn't matter, but I've been thinking about doing builds in the
squeak platform tree lately in order to simplify this.

you are missing the PkgInfo
See the xcode 3.x feature GENERATE_PKGINFO_FILE
Forces the PkgInfo file to be written to wrapped products even if this
file is not expected. [GENERATE_PKGINFO_FILE]
Likely this is missing from the xcode project and I likely just hand
copied the PkgInfo file over which makes it a bundle versus a folder

I used gcc 3.3 for powerpc, it's possible the dev build is setup for
powerpc, versus macintel since I normally don't build both binaries
for developement, and I only switched to a macintel last may.

Xcode can auto-copy the bundle to a target directory after the build.
