+
+   Since close_stdout is commonly registered via 'atexit', POSIX
+   and the C standard both say that it should not call 'exit',
+   because the behavior is undefined if 'exit' is called more than
+   once.  So it calls '_exit' instead of 'exit'.  If close_stdout
+   is registered via atexit before other functions are registered,
+   the other functions can act before this _exit is invoked.
+
+   Applications that use close_stdout should flush any streams
+   other than stdout and stderr before exiting, since the call to
+   _exit will bypass other buffer flushing.  Applications should
+   be flushing and closing other streams anyway, to check for I/O
+   errors.  Also, applications should not use tmpfile, since _exit
+   can bypass the removal of these files.
+
+   It's important to detect such failures and exit nonzero because many
+   tools (most notably `make' and other build-management systems) depend
+   on being able to detect failure in other tools via their exit status.  */
