Comment:

 The code for the OS X native menus in gimp2 +quartz takes the application
 name to be the name of file that was executed to start the app. So when
 you execute GIMP by hand you get 'gimp' (from $(prefix)/bin/gimp).
 However, when using gimp-app, the file that is executed is a symbolic link
 to $(prefix)/bin/gimp which resides in the app bundle's Resources
 directory.  This was originally named 'script' but it now renamed to
 'GIMP', the GIMP developers' preferred name. Note that none of this makes
 any difference for the X11 GIMP build where a GTK+ approach is taken.

 Committed in r115930.
