Hi

FWIW I don't think the on_exit_nicely business is in final shape just
yet.  We're doing something super strange and novel about keeping track
of an array index, so that we can modify it later.  Or something like
that, I think?  That doesn't sound all that nice to me.  Elsewhere it
was suggested that we need some way to keep track of the list of things
that need cleanup (a list of connections IIRC?) -- perhaps in a
thread-local variable or a global or something -- and we install the
cleanup function once, and that reads from the variable.  The program
can add things to the list, or remove them, at will; and we don't need
to modify the cleanup function in any way.
