This looks like the solution most people actually need, provided the 
tool still exists and works correctly.  My guess is that it patches 
the AppleEvent handler and ExitToShell(), which should be standard 
interfaces.

BTW, thanks Adrian for pointing out my archived response to a similar 
question.  As you might be able tell, I feel quite strongly about 
this.
