Raymond> Can we strengthen this by deprecating sys.exitfunc?
What would you have the atexit module use?
Of course, it would have to stick around in some form accessible by atexit but not by everyone else. I'm suggesting deprecating it from the published API and possibly changing its name to an underscore or some such.
Right now, the docs for sys.exitfunc mention that 'atexit' is a way to handle multiple exit functions, but it stops short of saying not to use sys.exitfunc at all.
