I've never been able to get it to work either, I always just resort to 
ResEdit. I wonder if it has something to do with the standalone settings 
-- I never allow the SB to scan the stack. I wonder if that matters.

Also, even though I point the SB to a plist file for the OS X 
distribution, it is never included either. Again, I wonder if that has 
to do with not allowing it to scan.

I have had to rebuild a very large stack several times and if I allow SB 
to scan the stack it takes over 30 minutes to generate standalones; 
that's why I don't want it to scan.
