He’s running it on the iPhone, like the thread of mine that you just answered (thank you!).
The -x argument is included in the iPhone port’s .plist file, which is loaded into launchctl on machine startup.
ProgramArguments
/sbin/mt-daapd
-f
-x
-c
/etc/mt-daapd.conf
Sadly, the guy who ported it doesn’t seem to have published any documentation. Could you point us to some documentation for what arguments are valid? Sorry, I’m semi-novice at open-source software.

printf(" -k Kill a running daemon (based on pidfile)n");

It should start like the launchd plist says.
As far as the listening socket error, that isn’t in my code. That’s something added or changed by the porter.
The porter is required to publish at least diffs of what he changed though, if he’s offering it for distribution. Ask him if he can send you the diffs.
That might be enlightening.
Try without the -x. I don’t know what that does, anyway. 🙂
