Two changes, really -- can file in separate bugs if necessary, though Mac SSL depends on each. 1. Need to be able to find an application by its creator code ('nPSM' in the case of Mac PSM) -- this is a fallback in case we can't find PSM in the right place. 2. Need to be able to launch applications in the background. Since PSM is a daemon process, it needs to be able to launch in the background.
19119 (SSL on Mac) depends on this bug being resolved.

Cannot verify. Opening PSM crashes Mac for me. Waiting for comments from mwelch or sfraser.
You can verify this bug. Cartman not launching is covered by bug 29572.
Verified per advice of sfraser.
