The problems with respect to icon display and file filtering are due to problems with mime type handling in the quartz version of glib. After patching glib as discussed here:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=788936

and adding uti definitions to the Info.plist file in the bundle

https://github.com/fredowski/osxbundler/commit/6c661a88dbd48f6357f5bf54f4c6bb861c2033c5

the fixed bundle works. The icons are displayed and the file filter works.

The MacOS 1.0.1 bundle shows strange behavior in the file open dialog

- When file filter Data and Syntax is chosen, the .sav files are not shown. Only .sps
- When file filter "All" is selected, then all files are shown.
- When file filter "System files .sav and .zsav" is chosen, then no file is shown.
- The dialog only shows "text" icons for the files and directories.

The problem is not visible in the 0.10.2 bundle. I guess this is related to changed mime handling in glib / gio. Maybe the file filter is a different problem.

See: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=788936

The strange behavior was mentioned by Julia Klausli and Thomas Hargrove on the pspp-users mailing list: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/pspp-users/2017-10/msg00015.html

Workaround: Choose file filter "Show all files"
