As a hobby I've been writing a debugger. One of the commands,"restart", works by calling an execv(). You may need to do this when the program you are debugging is threaded or when one needs to ensure that all program state is reinitialized.
Recently, I added remote debugging via TCP sockets and noticed that execv() in Python doesn't arrange exit hooks to get called. Should it? One can run _run_exitfuncs() from the atexit module, but the leading underscore of the function call suggests it is private. Should it be?
