The prefix is just to make sure all the required files (themes, i18n, .conf, etc.) get put into the .app directory tree. The wrapper script determines the install directory at runtime then sets lots of environment variables which the various libraries then use to find their data files. Actually, now I look at the .dmg on the site, it has been statically linked to gtk and is missing the magic to start the X11 server (just "open X11" I think). I think I used to have a more elaborate wrapper than that, sorry. Perhaps I decided it was simpler to use a static gtk. Also I should have said: the apple developer docs have a good chapter on application packaging. I can't give a URL, you need to sign up to use the site, but it's easy to find.
