"Application validation was skipped" because "the bundle “ITunesSoftwareService” couldn’t be loaded"

Trying to build an iOS app, I get the warning "Application validation was skipped," and the Application Loader rejects my binary because the code signing step has failed. I never had any problems building and submitting with Xcode 3. This is my first time attempting to build and submit with Xcode 4. I don't know what the "ITunesSoftwareService" framework is and I don't explicitly use it anywhere. I'm a bit baffled - any help would be appreciated. Here is the full build log:

Validate "/Users/lukebradford/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Random_Acts_of_Haiku-fbxqwasqdxqcoofxwybyjbxiuwvp/Build/Products/Release-iphoneos/Random Acts of Haiku.app"

    setenv PATH "/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/usr/bin:/Developer/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin"
    setenv PRODUCT_TYPE com.apple.product-type.application

Seems like the /Developer/Applications/Utilities/Application Loader.app App was corrupted when installing Xcode. My suggestion is to uninstall / reinstall Xcode. The Application Loader app is necessary to validate and submit an App to Apple for review.

You can also try installing the new iTunes Beta 7/8 if your using Xcode 4.2 dev preview, that might contain some required libraries that your missing.
