SL has a per-user launchd in which the Disabled boolean is set outside of the
plist. The SL version is what behaves "correctly". On Leopard, you need to
use sudo with -w in order to have write permission to the plist.

In previous versions, this option would modify the
configuration file. Now the state of the Disabled
key is stored elsewhere on-disk.

On Leopard, you don't need sudo if you don't have -w. The instructions in the
kde4 portgroups don't use '-w' and thus should work for both versions. They
should probably be updated then to inform the user to remove the Disabled key
by other means (editing the file?)
