By changing the "style" to "Normal" as per Christian's instructions, I was able to use "nautilus -q" to quit the nautilus process. However, strange behavior ensues if at this point I type "nautilus -q" again, anywhere from 1 to 6+ new Nautilus windows are immediately spawned, and I notice that the "style" of nautilus in "Current Session" gets changed back to "Restart".
Additionally, when I try to launch my SVN source-compiled version either when the Ubuntu nautilus process is dead via the method above, or if nautilus has been uninstalled, the Bug Reporting Tool gets launched and nautilus exits.
