         Thanks to Bruce Allen for suggesting this!!!!
 
+	[Note inserted by Bruce the next day. ANSI-C 4.6.2.1 says: The
+	longjmp function ... The longjmp function should not be called in
+	an exit handler (i.e., a function registered with the atexit
+	function (see §4.10.4.2)), since it might jump to some code which
+	is no longer in scope.  This should be OK on OSes that delay image
+	teardown until after calling the handler functions, provided that
+	the routine calling exit() has cleaned up its memory. An
+	alternative might be to use dlopen() or the loader to replace the
+	calls to exit() with a BOINC routine.]
