From a shell, enter "gdb MyApp.app", then "run".

I would suspect a dyld error, like a framework/library not found. The 
Finder / LaunchServices is really bad at reporting these. Running the 
app from a shell or gdb should report more useful info.

Actually I think we could answer almost all of the questions on this 
list that way ;-)
