[Composer] Resource forks lost

[Wolf, John]

I tried searching the list archives, but apparently they are not indexed...

I have found that if I use Composer 7 on 10.5 to build a package that will
be used for both 10.4 and 10.5, that resource forks are lost when the
package is installed on 10.4. If the package is installed on 10.5 the
resource forks are there. (For example, the TTF fonts that are installed
with Office 2008 contain a number of resource fork fonts.)

My ugly solution has been to tar the files with resource forks, and use the
postinstall script to untar them and delete the .tar file.

Is there any other solution to this? Do I HAVE to build the package in 10.4?
(Not really an option.)
