So why do all that work at exit?  Resources private to the application (file
descriptors, memory on the heap) don't need to be released by the application
when it exits - all the OSes on which we currently run (various flavors of
UN*X, Windows) will release them for you.  The less work done on exit, the
better (to minimize the delay between "quit the application" and its
disappearance).
