Since other people have had a shot at 1 and 3, I'll have a shot at 2 :)

The best solution to this is to do nothing; what any decent OS does when 
it shuts down is to (gracefully) stop all processes. For some reason a 
process is not dying quietly but, as there appears to be no problem 
caused by this, I'd let it be.

(Not gracefully stopping all processes is a bad thing - a process could 
be doing something important, such as writing to the hard disk, when 
suddenly cut off).
