I remarked that many features in the menu, like Color to Alpha are simply
not there. The executables files for the plug-ins and the filters are there
in Universal Binary but during the application initialization, they seems to
have been excluded.

same here for me. Almost all the filters are missing. One
that is missing would be photocopy, while blur e.g. is
available.
Printing also is missing.
This makes the GIMP pretty unusable on Mactel machines right
now. Please do something about that. I'm willing to help,
but unable to do the packaging by myself.

This bug could be language dependant. I have a GIMP 2.3.5
compiled through fink on an intel Mac. When running gimp on
german locale I can reproduce the missing filter issue. If I
instead "kill" the LANG and LANGUAGE environment variables I
get a feature/filter complete GIMP on Intel!
Can anyone try to reproduce this please?

OK, I found a solution:
setting LANG= gave me a full featured but english GIMP
setting LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 gave me a german gimp without any
filters and extensions at all
setting LANG=de_DE gave me a german gimP with a couple of
filters and extensions
setting LANG=de gave me a full
flavoured/featured/filtered/exteded german GIMP!!

Hmm... when I change to LANG=de instead of LANG=de_DE, the filters work but
help is in english. So what to do? It looks like foreign language help is mutually
exclusive with foreign language filters? I think for now I'll leave it and hope the
gimp folks fix the filters in the next release.

I put the problem to one of the GIMP developers.
Unfortunately the problem is not to be solved easily. Hence
on the bug is tracked in the GIMP bugzilla. I'll post the
number of the bug in here later.
If there might be a GIMP related bug in the future coming up
in the gimp.app tracker, please always consider to file a
bug in at the gimp bugzilla. This is the regular way to get
stuff fixed!

Just ti blow things put of the water, I'm English and I can't get Gimp.App to show
any of the plugin features not matter what LANG I try :0)
I've built gimp-2.2.11 from source via darwinports (you need a patch if you use
libpng) is everything works fine.

Well, dave, you didn't leave any contact info so I hope you read this. I'm not able
to duplicate your problem. Can you open Console, start up Gimp and see if you
get any error messages?

I'll have a go although I did try starting the gimp binary
in the bin folder in the package and AFAICR that did not
give any error messages
I have used Darwinports to build Gimp-2.2.10 since and has
all the script-fu and filters as expected.
I've logged in this time so you should be able to contact
me if need be.

Ha.... false alarm.
It appears I had an old .gimp-2.* folder around from the old PPC Mac that got
copied by the Setup Assistant so Gimp was looking in the wrong place.
Apologies to every one.

I also have the problem that Gimp.app 2.2.11 is missing lots of (all?) plugins on 10.4.8 Intel. This is when my preferred language is set to German in System Preferences - when it is set to English, the plugins are available. Setting the LANG or LANGUAGE environment variables to "en" doesn't fix it for me.
By launching Gimp on the command line with different values for various environment variables, with German selected in System Preferences, I seem to have narrowed it down to this: When LC_COLLATE is set to "C", the plugins are there - in all other cases, they aren't. Setting any other LC_* variables to "C" (except LC_ALL, of course) has no influence.
