I don't know about that.  The loader will have to be able to find it  
one way or another.

Can you run the application from the command line, and describe the  
error message (if any).  If the problem is that the loader can't find  
the libraries, you will see a useful message.  Otherwise you are  
probably barking up the wrong tree with otool.

Also you might have a look in the logs---start up Console.app and look  
in system.log.

Are you using bjam?  I think that's the problem.
