New Dunno if this applies, but...
when I've encountered XL not shutting down properly, sometimes it is because an implicit object pointer that has been created by the running instance of XL is not set to nothing (the app will only close once all pointers are set to nothing).

The soul and substance of what customarily ranks as patriotism is moral cowardice and always has been...We have thrown away the most valuable asset we had-- the individual's right to oppose both flag and country when he (just he, by himself) believed them to be in the wrong. We have thrown it away; and with it all that was really respectable about that grotesque and laughable word, Patriotism.

New del(obj) should do the same in Python
But it's possible that the Garbage Collector never calls the destructor before it exits the script. Tried calling the GC manually, but it didn't make much difference.
