If your OS doesn't clean up that type of stuff when a process
exits, you probably should get a better OS. The only
things I could think wouldn't get cleaned up automagically
would be things like shared memory or semaphores, and you could
possibly have lingering socket connections in <tt>TIME_WAIT</tt>
states depending on how you set your socket options.
