I talked to Mark W about the problem this morning. He confirmed that we 
need to re-script the standalone builder to account for the UB file 
format, and that the current SB won't work. He's given me a test stack 
to look at, and I'll try to do that later today. I don't have an intel 
Mac to test it on, but I can at least see if it builds and runs on my 
G5. If it does, I'll send it to you to include in the IDE, and maybe 
someone with a real Intel Mac can see if it works.
