Why is a large download acceptable for an app bundle but not a installer
package?

Could that have something to do with bzr explorer still trying to write
to stdout/stderr? I know bzr explorer on Windows has a similar problem
-- they've tried to make it a GUI app so you don't get the console
window but apparently Windows GUI apps cannot access stdout/stderr and
it causes errors during certain operations in bzr explorer.

Here's hoping it just works. ;)
