No, its not anything to do with gsh directly, its just that you  
aren't seeing the messages on the console when the server shuts  
down.  I'm not really sure how to capture that stuff actually, same  
problem happens with the geronimo:start-sever goal.

I did however add a message to the console when a shutdown is  
detected to let the user know what was going on.
