in the meantime, we were able to nail down this particular problem by 
inspecting the differences between

 find /opt/rkward -type f -exec ls -a {} \; 2> /dev/null | sort

on both machines, the one RKWard was built on (and runs fine), and the other 
with the bundle installation (and the errors reported above). it turns out the 
bundle doesn't contain most of the files in

 /opt/rkward/share/mime

but only a few of them. as a workaround, replacing the folder with a copy of 
the build machine's solved all problems:
 o http://reaktanz.de/stuff/R/mime.zip

now i only need to figure out how to ensure all mime types find their way into 
the bundle in the first place. i'll see if defining "shared-mime-info" as a 
dependency is the key.
