I just built a test app for OS X with sub-stacks saved separately and here is what I got:
Standalone_MacOSX_Test (a folder)
Test (my app - worked perfectly)
data (empty folder)
I right-clicked (control-clicked) on the Test app and selected "Show Package Contents"
Here is what I found (the contents of each folder is shown indented):
Contents
Info.plist (open this in a text editor to check the
settings)
MacOS
data
One.rev_components (My main stack was called One)
Two (my sub-stack)
Revolution
pbdevelopment.plist
PkgInfo
Resources
Revolution.icns
Revolution.rsrc
RevolutionDoc.icnsSo Rev is putting the sub-stacks where they need to be, and it knows where they are when the app runs. The only error as far as I can see is creating an unnecessary data folder in the application's main folder.
If you don't mind that Get info doesn't give the data you entered in the Dist Builder, then just delete the empty data folder and your app is ready to go. If you want to change icons or fix up any of the copyright or version info, then you will have to use the Finder to get to the info.plist and perhaps the Resources folder. You don;t ned to use any Unix commands and the app will work straight after being built.
I hope this helps.

Well do you want to get the job done, or nurse old wounds? ;-) It requires no Unix expertise. This really falls into the packaging and distribution realm, which you are responsible for anyways.
But re: your screenshot above, maybe I don't understand what the problem is and you should file a bugzilla report. If that's the case then I apologize for jumping to conclusions.
However, I still think that everyone distributing software for OS X needs to learn about application bundles on OS X.
I think thats a missunderstandig now...
rev did the build correct the standalone(engine) and the others stacks in the data folder:
* correct in OS9
* correct in WIN
* correct in Linux
* wrong in OSX
(I thin Linux is not so far way from bsd Unix, but its more far away from OS 9 or WIN and both are build correct; please correct me if I m wrong...)
and rev 2.0 did this build correct in OSX too... that is what you can see on the other screenshot...
So this has imho nothing to do with packaging and distribution process in OSX, which will start after that.
Its a bug in the new (updated) distribution builder. An all the other features of the distribution builder like icons did work in older releases. Why does all that no work in the "fixed distribution builder"?
