I'm on my (supported) PowerBook G3/400 (Pismo) right now. I see the 
problem with the second icon when an app is autolaunched (from an 
expansion bay hard drive), but I have no problem with the drag and 
drop, regardless of whether the app is running or not. Not even the 
second icon occurs when the app is launched from another partition on 
the startup drive.

The only workaround I can think of is to send a bug report to Apple.
