_exit() is listed and the only difference between exit() and _exit() is that
exit() calls functions registered by atexit(). So as long as we keep that in
mind, we should be OK.  Or just do the cleanup (all necessary functions are in
the list) and call _exit(). 

There are, of course, other approaches. Your decision.
