I'm afraid you can't. Mac OS X puts it there automatically (along with 
the Help menu, too) and the application doesn't have much to say about 
it. I've been able to disable the menu item after the standalone 
launches, though.

See gRevAppIcon and gRevSmallAppIcon in the docs. The size for the first 
should be 64x64 and the second is 32x32. The smaller image is used in 
addition to the standard image when you specify an icon type for the 
dialogs (i.e., "ask warning" or "answer question".) If you don't specify 
an icon type, the larger image is used alone.
