$PWD/MacOS/Yourapp should work. MacOS X is very picky about the path 
you use to start GUI binaries, that must be an absolute path.

Was the application built on the same major OSX release as it should 
run on? semi-standalone applications built on 10.2 don't work on 10.3 
and v.v. And simularly you should install the full MacPython 
distribution on 10.2 and the MacPython additions on 10.3, the full 
MacPython distribution causes problems on 10.3.
