A couple of things... I've modified the original patch changing
terminate(nil) to stop(nil).
That should take care of FPC friendly application termination.

I've also started on COCOALOOPNATIVE, Which seems to be as a safest (and
the most Cocoa friendly) approach.
As it does use native- run method, yet it doesn't hi-jack the loop to call
LCL event.

However, at this point, COCOALOOPHIJACK is used by default
