[Rd] Under Windows, Rgui and Rterm crash if one tries to close the graphic device while identify or locator are running

[Henrik Bengtsson]

If of any help,

I can reproduce this (on Windows 7) back to at least R 3.0.3 but it's
not there in R 3.0.0.  (I have *not* checked with R 3.0.1 and 3.0.2
which I don't have installed).
