New description:

 On Snow Leopard x86_64 (with the default x86_64 arch setting), py26-py2app
 installs properly. However, when you try to use it to build applications,
 it fails.

 For example, if you download the MusicBrainz Picard source package,
 install the dependencies with MacPorts, and build everything, you can run
 it from the source tree. But when you then try to build an app bundle
 with:

 {{{
 $ /opt/local/bin/python2.6 setup.py py2app
 }}}

 It fails with "IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
 '/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6
 /site-packages/py2app/apptemplate/prebuilt/main-x86_64'" and dumps you
 into pdb.

 The first problem seems to be an incomplete (and incorrect) set of
 apptemplates. The port installs four prebuilt templates:
  * main-fat: i386+ppc
  * main-fat3: i386+ppc+x86_64
  * main-intel: i386+ppc+x86_64
  * main-universal: i386+ppc+ppc64+x86_64

 As you can see, the main-x86_64 template is missing. (Also, at least one
 of the 4, main-intel, is wrong, and none of the 4 are useful anyway given
 that python was build x86_64-only.)

 I tried to manually "lipo main-intel -extract x86_64 -output main-x86_64"
 as a workaround; after doing so, py2app now fails with ValueError("New
 Mach-O header is too large to relocate").

 I tried using the Python 2.5 packages instead of 2.6, and again got the
 apptemplate problem.

 I then tried building a parallel MacPorts with arch i386, and everything
 worked fine.
