Cool. Now if you could turn it into a one-file module, I'm sure Jack
won't mind checking it into plat-mac... But let's plan this out a bit
more before we waste too much time.

Does potools support otool -L type stuff? It would be really useful if
we could do some automatic dependency checking.

Another problem with bundlebuilder is that it needs the dev tools
installed for --strip to work, which is kindof neccesary to produce
bundles of an acceptable size. Have you any idea whether a pure Python
version of strip would be feasable? Alternatively, we could perhaps ship
the strip executable somehow, if the license would allow that. An IDE
could just include it for example.
