In the case of fennec on OS X, this is incorrect and prevents running tests. Could we make it so that passing an explicit --appname argument avoids this problem?
Why don't we either:
a) Get rid of the -bin (Firefox doesn't need it anymore) or
b) Make things try without the -bin, and fall back to checking for it if the appname doesn't exist without it.

I, too, ran into this bug trying to test Fennec on Mac.

I didn't implement exactly what Ted suggested in comment 2, because in apps that still live in the old world, we really do want the -bin version. (Running a shell script from automation.py is full of fail, IIRC.)

Once bug 552864 is ported to Thunderbird (and Seamonkey?), we can remove this hack entirely.

Only append a -bin suffix if app-bin exists
