Hi I'm wondering under what conditions a function specified with atexit() won't get called on FreeBSD when a program terminates. The manual page says it gets called "via exit(3) or via return from the program's main". I take it that the cleanup function won't be called if the program dumps core, or if it is terminated with a kill(1) - or might it?
