One additional warning for Sigil 0.2.0 users:
Once you unzip the ePub and add the required meta information (and zip it back properly, change the extension, and add it back to iTunes) and it works:
Do NOT ever edit that ePub with Sigil again.
Sigil deletes the meta line from the .opf file (or maybe deletes and recreates the whole file, I'm not sure), and your cover will vanish (effectively, so far as iBooks is concerned).
Once again: after adding the required line by hand, do not edit the ePub with Sigil or it will disappear, and you'll have to add it back.
Fair warning.
