I had the same problem with Growl's XPC. Here's the solution that worked for me: https://gist.github.com/karstenBriksoft/5308470

@Michael: Thanks for the link!

If you combine the info from all known workarounds, it's pretty obvious what/where the issue is. Now all we can do is vote for the bug to get fixed. You know, ROUYWF. (Radar or use your workaround forever.)
