Anthony, you might need to run the debugger from
"/path/to/my/myprogram.app/Contents/MacOS/" directory.
It might solve your problem.
Or you can to try to run the program from the
"/path/to/my/myprogram.app/Contents/MacOS/".

cd "/path/to/my/myprogram.app/Contents/MacOS"
./myprogram

If you do that, your application should behave normally (be responsive to
mouse and keyboard).
Please note, that this is different that running the program from the
project's directory, since OSX is picky about carbon applications and
bundles.

thanks,
Dmitry
