// membership is recognized. If we launch the BOINC Manager too soon, it will
// fail with either a -1037 or -1200 permissions error, so we wait until the
// current user can access the projects directory and the switcher application.
//
// Apparently, in order to get the changed permissions / group membership, we must
// launch a new process belonging to the user. It may also need to be in a new
// process group or new session. Neither system() nor popen() works, even after
// setting the uid and euid back to the logged in user, but LSOpenFSRef() does.
// This tiny application loops until it can access the switcher application.
