Yes, you need to add 
 <binary>
   ${prefix}/lib/pango/${pkg:pango:pango_module_version}/modules/
 </binary>

 <data>
   ${prefix}/etc/pango/
 </data>

to your bundle file. I'll update the examples in git shortly to reflect that.

You also need to apply this patch:
https://github.com/jralls/gtk-mac-bundler/commit/92cf914ff780704078ff1bb5e94bebd2f53e73c6

All of which is temporary, because Behdad says he's going to get rid of the modules and just link the necessary bits in for the next release.
