Forceable termination of Felix instance leaves global EventDispatcher in 
non-restartable state
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: FELIX-363
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-363
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Framework
            Reporter: Rob Walker
            Assignee: Rob Walker


FELIX-314 fixed an issue where internal shutdown of the global EventDispatcher 
thread left Felx in a state where new instances could not be started within the 
same VM at a later time.

It seems in an Applet VM environment using JRE 1.6 and IE7 there is a variation 
on this case where the Applet VM is forcibly killing VM threads not cleanly 
terminated by the application itself e.g. a sloppily written Applet  (like 
ours!) which launched a Felix instance in the start() but didn't shut it down 
in the stop().

Such a forceable termination is not tracked or detected, and hence leads to a 
similar inability to start additional Felix instances as was being seen in 
FELIX-314
