ntfs-3g in initrd (and quirky pkg) updated from 2009.4.4 to 2009.11.14
fix shutdown if ntfs partition mounted, 60-sec timeout in shutdown dlg

JorgenS reported in the Quirky 003 feedback thread that the on-going problem remains, if a NTFS partition is mounted, Quirky will not shutdown, X just restarts. I have isolated the problem, and fixed /etc/rc.d/rc.shutdown.
Note, this problem did not occur if the NTFS partition has the 'pupsave'.

There was another issue where unattended shutdown may be required, and where there is no 'pupsave' file. The rc.shutdown script brings up a dialog asking if you want to create a 'pupsave', but if unattended then it will never shutdown. I have put in a 60 second timeout in the dialog, after which it will shutdown without creating a 'pupsave'.
