Applications that are sublaunched using SysAppLaunch don't have access
to global variables. That is a limitation of how sublaunches occur.
It looks like the JVM is doing behind the scenes access to setup its
environment. Its exit method is probably coded to always switch back to
the launcher rather than return to a calling application.
