Ooh, ooh, the "hidden goodies"!  So far I've only dug into the
documented API ('course I could be missing this one).

I tried setting sys.exitfunc but it wasn't called when I apachectl
stop'd, probably because that kills the process via SIGTERM, and I don't
think exit handlers are run in that case.  (I probably should have used
the atexit module, but that has the same semantics.)

I hear ya about threading issues.  Right now, I'm trying to get the
simplest possible thing that can work. <wink>
