Standalong still hanging on 98 and XP (Was "Standalone not fully exiting on windows")

Thank you to J. Landman Gay and Richard Gaskin.  Unfortunately, implementing
these needed suggestions and mechanisms has not solved the problem.  It also
does not matter whether I use "quit" or don't use "quit" and pass
"closeStackRequest"...same result.

I am now suspicious of 2 things.  I am using Access (my clients use both
Access 2000 and Access 2002, and all of them are experiencing this same
problem) and I am ensuring that my databases are closed before "quit" or
"pass closeStackRequest".....but it *seems* that utilizing ODBC with
Access/Microsoft Jet drivers frequently causes RR to "invalid page fault"
upon exit.  (I have bug #1422 filed with this suspicion).  My second
suspicion is the use of revSpeak.  I do not perform "revUnloadSpeech" in my
"closeStackRequest" handler, since RR 2.2 "can't find handler" when trying
to execute "revUnloadSpeech".  I do not yet have a bug open on that issue.
My app is working really well....except that exiting the darn thing either
causes an "invalid page fault"....OR....a "hung" standalone process that
can't be killed.  This is happening on both Win98 AND WinXP.

Again, thank you to all!
