// There are several possibilities for the exit handlers.  To use the default
// implementation (which uses atexit()), nothing special has to be done.
//
// To work around problems with atexit() being used in a dll you may #define
// STXXL_NON_DEFAULT_EXIT_HANDLER at library compilation time.  In this case
// the library/application should call stxxl::run_exit_handlers() during
// shutdown.
//
// To provide your own exit handler implementation, #define
// STXXL_EXTERNAL_EXIT_HANDLER and implement stxxl::register_exit_handler(void
// (*)(void)) and stxxl::run_exit_handlers() in your application.
