If you want to the app to load with the status bar initially hidden:

• [appname]-info.plist file
• Find "Status bar is initially hidden"
  • Add new row if it isn't already there
• Select 'YES' for the value

"Status bar is initially hidden" is the key that is available at least in xcode 4.2 beta 5.
