From the Terminal window (bash, OSX 10.6.5) I'm running a

This puts it into the background where it comtineus to run:
38547 ttys000 0:00.01 ./myprogram 121 331 8.9
But I want it to stay running even when I quit from Terminal.
It always dies when I quit Terminal so I have to keep the
window around and I can't log out until it finishes.
Is there another way to do this?
Run your program in a screen session (man screen) and detach the
session (C-a d) before quitting Terminal.
