A couple of other things that would be good before a binary:
Get the right version number to display for Get Info. Unfortunately
this is in a .nib file and I don't know how to automate this.
For creating the .dmg it is nice to have a background picture as in
this tutorial

Also it is nice to have the .dmg contain a symbolic link to /
Applications,
so the user can drag the app easily, as in the Adium installer (check
out their .dmg at http://www.adiumx.com/).
Regarding the universal binary, I'm surprised that Xcode does not just
cross-compile it for you. But then, we don't have a cross-compiling
ocaml... so yeah, we have to go with the stitch together method.
AFAIK, though, none of the developers has an Intel Mac ???
I've been meaning to set up a buildbot so to provide a binary for
every checkin. It would be good to automate this. I can do this for
the PowerPC version but not the Intel version.
