Ok. Then would configuration based environmental variables be useful for the Xcode bundle? You tell the XCode project you're building Debug configuration (and/or X target) and TM will use Debug environmental variables instead of Release ones... or environmental variables specific to that target.

(This would also solve my problem in a round-about way: I could specify a TM_BUILD_DIRECTORY_DEBUG and TM_BUILD_DIRECTORY_RELEASE and, since I specified that I'm building Debug, TM would use TM_BUILD_DIRECTORY_DEBUG to find and launch the app)

Later,
