true, PD just bails out without freeing any resources -- the scheduler 
just exits.
That also has been a problem for me lately, when using named semaphores 
under OSX, which must be freed otherwise they stay allocated in the OS.
Miller, it would be great if we could find a way for PD to cleanly exit. 
This would also improve finding memory leaks with valgrind.

best greetings,
Thomas
