Thanks, I'll have a look.

BTW, I was able to confirm it is a result of streams. My Java
processes do not quit if I pipe their output to null:
 NSTask *task = [NSTask new];
 [task setLaunchPath:execPath];
 [task setCurrentDirectoryPath:_directory];
 [task setArguments:arguments];
 [task setStandardError:[NSFileHandle fileHandleWithNullDevice]];
 [task setStandardOutput:[NSFileHandle fileHandleWithNullDevice]];
 [task launch];

So if I want to capture the output I can simply use a file handle to a
real file and it looks like the NSTask process no longer quits.
