Hackers,

In Mac OS X 10.10 “Yosemite,” Apple removed SystemStarter, upon which our OS X start script has relied since 2007. So here is a patch that adds support for its replacement, launchd. It includes 7 day log rotation like the old script did. The install script still prefers the SystemStarter approach for older versions of the OS, for the sake of easier backward compatibility. We could change that if we wanted, since launchd has been part of the OS for around a decade.
