I forgot to mention that the problem case is exceptional: the problem I have is 
only in the case of an Intel version of the app trying to launch a PPC-only 
child the first time after reboot: -launch returns immediately, and isRunning 
returns YES, but there is like a 3 second delay between the time Rosetta begins 
to run and my binary is actually launched - it appears that isRunning returns 
YES as soon as Rosetta is started - not when my PPC child is actually started.

In the Intel-launching-Intel or PPC-launching-PPC case, there is never any 
problem whatsoever. Maybe I need to add some code to complete *after* Rosetta 
has *finished* launching.

I'm pretty sure that -launch is synchronous. When it returns, the
subprocess is already running. Are you seeing behavior to the
contrary?
