The problem that you are experiencing may be related to using an old
version of macsBug and it may be something that is unavoidable. I assume
that you are not trying to force a quit with the escape key combination.
This will never work right in your case.

Drop into the debugger. Check the application name (center left) and see if
it is your app running. If so, type "ES", if not hit command-G and try
again till you hit the right application
