IIRC, you're using Mac OS X. (I don't remember which version.) I just
did a little test on my iMac running 10.0.4. Let's just say I don't
think the "reboot" and "shutdown" features on the GUI and the BSD
layer are completely integrated. And I'm not sure on a reboot if the
process would necessarily get enough time to clean up the databases
before it's killed--the standard UNIX routines supply some delay
between a SIGTERM and a SIGKILL.
(For the interested, I ran the BSD shutdown and got a text prompt in
a few seconds.)

That's not such a big deal--remember all the -a means is that it's
going on a .work set of files. So if this update completed, you're
fine--make sure the .work versions are moved on top of the old
versions and keep going.

If you're using the 3.2 release, one of the new "httools" is htstat,
which will give you statistics on the databases, a list of the URLs,
etc.

Again, for version 3.2.x in your config file:
head_before_get: true
