If possible please include the code in opensmalltalk/vm.  There are good starting points:

In {build.macos32x86,build.macos64x64}/newspeak.cog.spur/installer is code that builds the newspeak .dmg, but does not sign it.  There's a Makefile.

In {build.macos32x86,build.macos64x64}/common/Makefile.app is code to sign an .app bundle using codesign.  The certificate to use is indicated via an environment variable as described in  {build.macos32x86,build.macos64x64}/HowToBuild.
