Try using GetAppParms to get a Handle to the Finder information for
your own application.  Modify it to contain the new argument list,
then launch the application.  I think this will work for a sublaunch,
too, but I haven't tried it.  The reasonable thing to happen for a
MultiFinder sponsored sublaunch would be for MF to clone your
application Finder information, now wouldn't it?
