Uncompressing the .egg works with py2app and MySQLdb.  I had the same issue
and was able to get py2app to correctly build the .app with MySQLdb after
manually unzipping the MySQLdb .egg under site-packages.

Instead of
*  MySQL_python-1.2.2-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.egg   (as a binary .zip file)

make a MySQL_python-1.2.2-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.egg directory and uncompress
it

1) mv MySQL_python-1.2.2-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.egg
MySQL_python-1.2.2-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.zip
2) mkdir MySQL_python-1.2.2-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.egg
3) mv MySQL_python-1.2.2-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.zip
MySQL_python-1.2.2-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.egg
4) cd MySQL_python-1.2.2-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.egg
5) unzip MySQL_python-1.2.2-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.zip

Re-run the py2app and it should pick up the MySQLdb module now as expected.
