Hmm.. thats strange.  I wonder why I did not run into the bug.  I have  
setuptools-0.6c8-py2.5.egg installed only.  I do not have  
setuptools-0.7 installed.  I have subversion installed through  
Macports.. ahh.. I have version 1.4.6 of subversion installed.  That  
must be why.

It won't hurt taking the old ones out, but most likely you will need  
to check the contents of the easy-install.pth so that it does not  
reference old files that no longer exist.

well.. I checked your versions of macholib, modulegraph, and py2app  
and I have the same.. the only item I do not have is the newer version  
of setuptools.  Unfortunately I'm stumped now without looking into it  
farther.
The only other difference I see is my setup.py from my old program has

from distutils.core import setup not from setuptools import setup

other than that I'm not sure why its not working as your program is  
not complicated in any means.

Best of luck and if you find out any other information, let me know.
