my mistake. It's part of the Vista Logo testing tools, pretty well
hidden on msdn ;)

unfortunately that doesn't work, because when i log off on the Vista
machine, it also kills the debugging session immediately.

yes, the wxApp dtor will not get called. Actually it seems the very
last call that is executed during cleanup is
::DestroyWindow(GetHwnd())
in
wxWindowMSW::~wxWindowMSW()
if it's called for the last toplevel window.
