JACK1 does NOT disconnect clients because of "some unknown
incompatibility". It disconnects them because they are too slow to
keep up with realtime processing constratings. JACK2's default mode of
operation doesn't require that all clients keep up (although the
audible effects of them not keeping up are bad), and thus it will not
disconnect clients in the same way.

and ralf, providing command line invocations for jack to OS X users is
essentially useless.
