 Replying to [comment:15 dports@…]:
 > I stand corrected -- I think screen only behaves that way under 10.5.
 Under 10.4, I think it wasn't doing anything special with regards to
 launchd and contexts, although I'm not entirely sure since I can't tell
 what version of screen (and what Apple patches) shipped with 10.4.

 I'm using screen from MacPorts (ditto for sshd, from the openssh port).

 that's available in 10.4.

 It isn't available.

 Thanks. That's a bit complex. I wonder whether it is possible to change
 the namespace, or to run an application in a different, existing context
 (possibly with the help of an agent running in this context).
