I also had some trouble with this earlier... recall this post from Jan

This patch supposedly made it into mercurial, I'd assume Kyle's code  
is up to date as well, but you (Kyle) might want to double check that  
you have it.  That patch was needed to be able to locate the data  
directory within a Mac application bundle, and could partly explain  
why it wasn't finding the files.

Anyway, it's tricky because globulation does a bit of magic I didn't  
quite get around to figuring out, which allows it to use the data  
directory in the build directory even when you move and run the build  
products from another location.  In other words, this allows you to  
make a package which you think is self-contained, but it's actually  
referencing build-directory resources which won't be found on other  
users' machines.  :-/
