Can anyone explain this weird behavior? Should emacs.app just never
be installed in a classic bin directory?

When you build the Aqua client, then /sw/bin/emacs23 is unusable. Instead you should use the application /sw/Applications/Emacs.app, either by double-clicking it in Finder or running 'open /sw/ Applications/Emacs.app' on the command line ('open -e /sw/ Applications/Emacs.app <file name>' lets it load a file). You can also launch it as '/sw/Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs &' and pass arguments to it. This bypasses the OS in a way that you can launch this application more often than once.

Emacs.app has or had a Preferences Pane to configure some basic things.

People say that if you play Microsoft CD's backwards, you hear satanic things, but that's nothing, because if you play them forwards, they install MS Windows.
