Hmm, then I guess the process isn't really exiting.  It's just
hanging.  You might want to try sending SIGQUIT to the process.  This
will cause it to print out a stack trace of every running thread.
That might give an indication of where in the code it is hanging.

I can't think of any good reason why it would be hanging for an
extended period of time.  Normally some delay is normal as beagled
signals beagled-helper to shut down, and it finishes indexing its
current batch of data, but this shouldn't be too long.
