Summary: Droplets aren't always recognized as apps in MacPython 2.3b2

Initial Comment:
I am using MacPython 2.3b2 (installed via the 2.3b2-2 binary installer) on MacOS 10.2.3.

I turned zappycfiles.py (from the Mac directory of the 2.3b2 source distribution, which I also have) into a drag-and-drop applet by dragging onto BuildApplet. On the whole it works fine (though no console for feedback and I've not figured out how to get one), but I am having two problems that are almost certainly caused by the same underlying problem:

- The Dock does not acknowledge that it's an application. I cannot drag it into the usual app area of the dock.

- DragThing (4.6.1, the current version) seems to agree with the Dock. It will not let me drag stuff onto it (even with "Check file types during drags" unchecked).

Obviously more of an annoyance than a crisis, but I hope worth fixing.

This has been fixed in CVS (it was a bug in bundlebuilder.py).
