My newly installed py2app is: py2app-0.6.4-py2.7.egg.  All of these were in earlier versions when I last packaged the program with py2app.

You could try to run the application from Terminal.app, for an app named Foo.app you'd run /path/to/Foo.app/Contents/MacOS/Foo (where /path/to is the directory containing Foo.app). That way errors get printed to the Terminal window instead of in the console log, that way you should be able to see more information and probably also a Python traceback for the NameError, which will hopefully help in locating the source of the problem.
