After launching it from the dock I started it from the shell. It did come
up but reported an error:
~% /Applications/Aquamacs\ Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Aquamacs\ Emacs
2009-05-23 06:46:49.454 Aquamacs Emacs[61133:10b] *** CFMessagePort: bootstrap_register(): failed 1100 (0x44c) 'Permission denied', port = 0x2007, name = 'org.gnu.AquamacsEmacs.ServiceProvider'
See /usr/include/servers/bootstrap_defs.h for the error codes.
If it wasn't already running, starting it from the shell produced no error
message. According to the referenced include file, error 1100 is
"BOOTSTRAP_NOT_PRIVILEGED", which I guess jives pretty well with "Permission
denied."
