That's It! I use iTTool to put the name of the current tune in a small 
floating window. If I quit iTTools before I quit iTunes, iTunes quits 
as expected.

The only mystery is that I had used iTTools for months before this 
problem started. Life is mysterious.

Thanks again for solving this highly annoying problem
