It turns out the issue was related to some changes I had made to the
application launcher.  It performs a little bit of magic to convince the
operating system that the application you double-click is the application that
ends up being launched.  In reality, it's a different application (in case of
WebKit.app it's actually Safari.app, in the case of Drosera.app, it's actually
Drosera.app/Contents/Resources/Drosera.app).  In the process of making these
changes, I forgot to update Drosera's launcher which was causing something in
AppKit to look for bundle resources in the wrong place.  The key error message
here was actually:
DroseraLauncher[266] Unable to load nib file: MainMenu, exiting

Please note that it is a *really really* bad idea to mess with anything under
/System, and that definitely includes replacing
/System/Library/Frameworks/WebKit.framework with a custom version.

That said, the latest nightly build (currently r18847) should now work
correctly.  I'm leaving this bug open until I commit the relevant changes to
SVN.
