'02 9-3 Stumbling on startup

The last few days I've been noticing that my 9-3 has a period of very rough idleling after starting it for the first time in the morning. It starts, stumbles a bit, then gets back to normal, especially if I give it a little gas. Haven't had an outright stall yet, but it's gotten close, espeically in the event I turn on the A/C soon after starting. Never happens when warm though, and doesn't quite match the "rough idle" results I'm getting from searching the board.
I'm running 93 octane, but it's been a while since I dropped in Techron which will be my next step. Just wanted to see if #1 this happens to other folks and #2 if it's a harbinger of something worse in the future. It's the first problem I've had in 5 months of speedy Turbo fun, but I'm more than a little overprotective of this car.
