What worries me a little is the state the operating system keeps on

formally a OS bug, but if so is something we need to workaround. How
definate are you on your reports where you have problems rerunning a
test caused by the OS not releasing resources on VM exit?

I see two issues here:

1. Terminating every VM.

A working termination is a firm requirement before bypassing orderly teardown can be attempted.

2. Deleting any temporary files.

Empirically, a Ctrl-C termination often leaves the system in a state in
which subsequent tests fail.

Any idea which VM receives this Ctrl-C? The ant VM, the harness master, or any random process? There is no such concept as process group leader under windows is there?
