#2107: When running a relay, Vidalia doesn't close when Windows shuts down

 When Tor is running as a relay, and you try to shut it down, it wants to
 wait ShutdownWaitLength seconds before Tor will close.

 When Vidalia tries to stop Tor, Vidalia gives you the option to kill Tor
 right now or to wait until Tor closes on its own.

 When Windows shuts down, it sends some signal to all the running apps to
 make them close nicely.

 People who run Tor relays under Vidalia on Windows report that sometimes
 Windows complains that Vidalia hasn't closed during shutdown.

 Is Vidalia failing to do the "quick kill" thing on Tor when it gets the
 "shutting down" signal from Windows?
