You can find out how many PythonCOM objects are alive at any time by calling
pythoncom._GetInterfaceCount(). If this is zero, shutdown should always be
OK. If not, you have some immortal objects for some reason...
Alternatively, just try calling pythoncom.CoUninitialize() on the way out.
In builds 124 and before, the hang is almost certainly when PythonCOM is
calling this (but at an inopportune time, causing the hang)
