You can do this using the old LoginItemAPI sample that DTS provides
(or used to anyway--I haven't asked lately). I just verified that it
still works on 10.5. It allows you to install login items that run
for any user and work on 10.5 and earlier without handling things
differently for different versions of the OS.
Is there some reason not to use that approach, other than making use
of the latest things available on 10.5?
Thanks,

Did you *read* the document, I pointed to?
"Global Login Item
A global login item is a login item that is launched when any user
logs in. Installing a global login item is roughly equivalent to
installing that login item for all users on the system: every time
a user logs in, loginwindow launches that user's login items and
all global login items.
In Mac OS X 10.5 and later you can install a global login item
using the shared file lists interface to Launch Services.
IMPORTANT: Prior to Mac OS X 10.5 there is no supported way to
install a global login item. If you need this functionality, please
contact Developer Technical Support (DTS)."
