That sounds fine to me.  I didn't closely look at the rest of
gnome-post-install since I was concentrating on the problem at hand.

I'd also like a target explicity for generating a dynamic plist that
runs after post-install.  Doing it in post-install works most of the
time unless you start using post-install option helpers to install
additional files.

Well, here are a bunch more ... these contain both INSTALLS_ICONS and
"autoplist", which I'm assuming comes from USES_GNOME=autoplist
