iTunes 9.0.2 won't install (Problem with AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg)

I am not able to install 9.0.2 on my Mac Pro. I have tracked it down to the "AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg", which returns an error when updating the system extension configuration. Is there anybody out there, who already worked around this problem? Find below an excerpt from my install.log containing one install attempt:
