There is a new Applescript solution for this login problem. I haven't
actually tested it yet, but it certainly seems like it should work.

Essentially it's a script that you put in your Login items. The script then
launches whatever login items you need, with a 5 second delay between
launches (which apparently is a workaround for this Carbon problem). [I've
tested its functionality, and it works; I just haven't actually installed it
as a login item yet.]

I can't remember where I found the script, sorry. But if people are
interested I could repost it here (it's small). A good guess is that I found
it on Mac OS X Hints.

Of course, maybe the new 10.1.2 upgrade (rumored to be released today or
soon) will take care of this. Let's hope!

Also, on the matter of daemons, I imagine there are several other daemons
running behind our backs in OS X. I know I have another one, for a shareware
utility (KeyboardMaestro). Don't mail services and other things run daemons
in X?
