Yes, I tried that and it does work, though it has some very weird side
effects: all of my running script application processes suddenly have the
same name: "FMServer Config". This is the name of the process spawned by the
application "FileMaker Server Config". This is strange for 3 reasons:

1) None of my AppleScript applications have this name
2) I am used to the classic Mac OS, where an application spawns a process
of the same name, but here we have an application called "FileMaker Server
Config" spawning a process called "FMServer Config"
3) FMServer Config (a.k.a FileMaker Server Config) isn't even running

I am starting to suspect that the daemon is not as Mac OS X friendly as it
should be. After all, it was compiled for Linux.
