That's not what httpd does. OTOH APR's test and httpd's support binaries
do register the atexit call. So what's the right way to do this and
what kinds of problems can we expect from the atexit() version?

Ryan and I were just having this discussion the other day regarding
SIGINT from a Ctrl-C keypress from many shells. The feeling was that
we wouldn't expect the cleanups to run for SIGINT, since we don't
(or shouldn't be) catching that signal in Apache. Is this incorrect?
