Using launchd to run svscan is pretty redundant: they're designed to
do many of the same things.
I recommend using /etc/rc.local to run svscanboot. It works just fine
on my MacOS X 10.5 system.
If you insist on using launchd (e.g. if it helps the consistency and
maintenance of your system), I would suggest that you avoid using
svscan entirely. To get a good plist file, though, try using Lingon
(http://tuppis.com/lingon/).
