This could be for the following reason:
- if somewhere in the code AWT (or Swing) is started, this creates an
  event handler thread.
- the JVM does not exit is any non-daemon-threads are running
- therefore, if the AWT-thread is running, the application does not
  exit
This does not happen on Windows, but the JVM under OS X could behaver
this way...
