FYI, it should be the case where the solution is having the LSMinimumSystemVersion key to your Info.plist.  But unfortunately, the system fails to launch the app, doesn't bring up any alert and logs this to the console:

RegisterProcess failed (error = -50)


As an example, I add the following to TextEdit.app's plist

	<key>LSMinimumSystemVersion</key>
	<string>10.4.0</string>

and then launched in under 10.3.7

I've made a note to myself to file this bug later.  While Apple can't go back in time and fix this, it would be nice that starting in Tiger, the system will do a better job of working with this key.
