Couple of things.
onlyif is only valid on exec resources.
This shouldn't actually be necessary. The pkgdmg provider should keep
track of which things it's installed, so it won't keep trying to install
the .dmg on every run.
Is the following resource definition not working for you?
package { 'Bindscript20100601.dmg':
provider => pkgdmg,
ensure => installed,
source => 'temp/location/rightnow/Bindscript20100601.dmg',
}
