Fink could be running Xquartz -version, and with the nasty new hack  
that Jeremy just put in Xquartz would register with the window server  
to become active and gain focus. Only, Xquartz exits so quickly (since  
-version just prints to console and doesn't *actually* start the  
server) that the Dock doesn't have time to draw the icon before it  
disappears.
