Good point. I'm not too sure either; it depends what the current needs
are, or what they would be if the code was nicer. Options include: just
using atexit(3); maintain our own list of what to call so we can pass in
a closure, like the non-portable on_exit(3); same but allow the removal
of a list item. Stick with atexit() for new stuff for now, I guess,
until it can be looked at en masse.
