The problem is very simple. Freewheeling is trying to copy a file from 
within the application bundle and it is getting befuddled by the spaces in 
the filenames. It's an oversight on my part. I will fix it shortly. For 
now, the quick fix is to copy the Freewheeling application to a folder 
where there are no spaces in the complete name-- for example, just 
'/Applications'. Start from this folder, and you should have no problem.

Freewheeling is a universal binary app, so it should run on both 
platforms. I don't have a PPC Mac to test, but I'm receiving reports that 
it works.

All the Best,
