The target is needed to change the install name path of your  
executable so that it can look for MacRuby.framework inside the bundle  
and not on the /Library filesystem.

Do you get anything in the console?

Also, what if you try to start it from the command-line?

   $ ./Path/To/Foo.app/Contents/MacOS/Foo

This looks like a problem with the appscript code, but maybe there is  
a bug in MacRuby too... I will have a look (this macruby-appscript  
library looks very cool!).
