Quick note...I found the following site useful:

http://launchd.info/

Regarding dependencies, see the tab "Configuration" and the 
explanation of "OtherJobEnabled" (which is pretty poorly named for 
what it really does) and "NetworkState".  One of them may get you 
close enough.  Really, though, Apple expects these processes to be 
well-behaved and do their own checking/waiting for the conditions 
they need to be able to run.
