IS the stack dumpfrom the process running out of control? I do not think so - as agent_kgb said, the process should end on an exit() call. Process running amok just crank cpu until somebody kills it.
It definitely is a user training issue. Closing the desktop window will cause a SIGHUP to be sent to the UNIX processes. The process you are seeing is probably forked over to whatever the informix user has, not the original user account. Check the owning username to be sure. It affects where to look for code that is trapping the SIGHUP signal. Which your problem seems to be - a guess.
