Hmm, this could turn out to be interesting :-). Could you check the  
license of the intel compiler, are you allowed to do this?

BTW. A better fix would be to rewrite the install_name  of the  
libguide.dylib in /opt/intel/cc/.../, then py2app would automaticly  
copy the library and rewrite the install_name.
