Mac OS X Update 10.4.6 Update kills my Mac

I'm usually a really big fan of the Mac OS X Software Update app. It's easy to use, automatic and mostly nonintrusive. But after applying today's update, my shiny new Mac Book Pro stopped booting!

Booting

Each time I rebooted, it beachballed on or right before the "Starting Mac OS X" progress bar screen. Fortunately, a kind soul on the Apple forums provided a solution - reboot into "safe mode" and move everthing out of /Library/StartupItems/.

This sucks. I'm always encouraging my friends & family to switch to Mac, and everytime I run into shit like this I feel like a clown.
