Sounds to me like you are doing this back to front.
I would shut the first instance down and then launch the newly installed
update. In fact I would shut the app down before running the install, else
it is liable (in my experience) to crash if you update the binary on disk
while it is still running. Also, check out the 'open' command for
launching an app from a shell script.
This should really be asked on the installer-dev
list. It may be that the postinstall script is the place to do this kind
of thing, I'm not sure.

Then in my postflight script, I'd like to run my
application, and then have the first instance exit.
