[launchd-dev] Starting launch agents

[Dave Zarzycki]

We know this is a weak spot right now (bug #5476420), but alas,  
Leopard to too close to being done to address this properly. I know  
what I'm about to suggest is unpleasant, but as the author, I'd be  
happier if users logged out and back in again for this to take effect.  
Finally, the LAUNCHD_SOCKET variable is an implementation detail that  
is likely to change in the OS release *after* Leopard.

Sorry,

davez
