I also had some trouble with this earlier... recall this post from Jan 6:

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. :-/

if you're talking about the libs it depends on, libboost, libsdl,
etc. I already figured out how to bundle those in :)
