Thankfully no. Well, almost...
The app needs to be linked against -framework PLT_MzScheme (installed  
in $PLT/lib)  so either having that installed in a sensible place  
(jack-osx puts the jack framework in /Library/Frameworks) becomes a  
requirement or we bundle it too. FYI its about 3mb. That deals with  
the fluxus app.

On the flip side, if you want to load fluxus modules in MrScheme,  
hopefully all you'll have to do is append the collects path before  
loading the modules.

And yes, it all feels wrong :)
