Title: Portal Ignores Hardware Calibration

Description: when launching portal my Hardware calibration profile changes, you can see the desktop turn a pinkish colour.
Software: OSX 10.6.3 - all updates

Type of Mac: Mac Pro 2009 2.26ghz - Octcore 4870 512MB - 12GB Ram

Calibration device - Spyder 3 Pro.
Calibration Orangiser - OSX Screen Panel

Reproduce:
1. setup a calibration & name it
2. open up portal in Windowed Mode.
3. you can see screen change shade visually. but the calibration does not change in OSX panel.
4. Go to System Preference reselect your desired Calibration profile
5. screen changes again visually to what you have set up as if portal has overridden OSX desktop Gamma.

this is quite annoying as i want my desktop gamma to stay the same but only Game to change if necessary.
