-dealloc is short circuited when an application is quit (as
deallocation is going to occur due to the application's memory space
going away).
You should arrange for things that need to occur on application quit
to occur in -applicationShouldTerminate: without relying on object
lifetimes to do this (if you ever write a GC enabled application you
will find you have the same issues in that you cannot message an
object in -finalize reliably).
