I found an interesting article from our friends of the 'Blue' persuasion that discusses the JVMs use of hardware signals and how to use shutdown hooks that come into play when the JVM is shutting down for any reason. http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/ibm/library/i-signalhandling/ Not that it helps for the issue being discussed but it is closely related.
