This fix uses the same`run'-vs-`finishLaunch' technique as before,
but patches up the modal-dialog problem by calling `run' again
with a callback to start a modal loop.
Merge to 5.2.

I believe that this can go wrong in the case that you edit a buffer and switch tabs
before drracket fully finishes responding to the edited buffer (due to a queue-callback
that postpones some of the response to editing the buffer) for online expansion.
At least, this is how I guess that the error below happened:
send: target is not an object: #f for method: get-view

Calling NSApplication's `run' works better than calling `finishLaunching'
directly, particularly in 64-bit Lion for some reason.

with drdr
also change two of the failing tests so they pass, but incorrectly and
add a note there to that effect so if someone does fix that eventually
they won't be confused (I hope)
