Be Alerted When SystemUIServer Restarts

Question

Hi,

I need to be able to be alerted either when SystemUIServer terminates, or when it launches, preferably terminates. The notification NSWorkspaceDidTerminateApplicationNotification isn't posted when launchd restarts it. Is there some way I can be alerted?

If you can find the pid for SystemUIServer, you could monitor it with a kqueue using the EVFILT_PROC and NOTE_EXIT flags.
