This is on 10.6? Read the system docs about “Sudden Termination”. This is an OS 
optimization that quits apps by simply killing the process unless the app 
registers that it has specific things it needs to do upon quit. Now, I think 
that registering a custom -applicationShouldTerminate: handler would disable 
sudden termination, but I haven’t actually worked with this feature so I don’t 
know for sure; and this seems like the most likely thing to me.
