+ Priority: Low. This is an enhancement. It would slight reduce
memory usage but would also increase coupling. These
resources are nicely modular now.
+ Title: ISSUES WITH atexit() AND on_exit()
+ Description: These functions execute with the following bad properties:
+
+ 1. They run with interrupts disabled,
+ 2. They run in supervisor mode (if applicable), and
+ 3. They do not obey any setup of PIC or address
+ environments. Do they need to?
+
+ The fix for all of these issues it to have the callbacks
+ run on the caller's thread (as with signal handlers).
+ Status: Open
+ Priority: Medium Low. This is an important change to some less
+ important interfaces. For the average user, these
+ functions are just fine the way they are.
