Well, it looks like Mac support it brand new (an not yet in a release 
version) for PyInstaller, so that is a likely culprit.

Have you tried py2app?

Anyway, It's great to hear that PyInstaller is working on Mac Support -- 
it'll be great to have a bundler that works on all three Major (and a 
few minor) platforms.

Does it build a "proper" application bundle? Has it been working well 
for you otherwise?
