When it came time to do the release, an interesting wrinkle: On PPC only, using launchd for dbus confuses dyld so that it can't find the shared libraries for gconfd. Works fine on Intel, both 10.5 and 10.6.

Very strange, but I had to revert to the shell script dbus launch for PPC on the 2.4.6 release.
