You can always explicitly call a finalizer. Do you override the
standard ports and need to perform some cleanup? You can use
"on-exit".  It just pushes exit-handlers on a list, so by installing
one you will not interfere with other exit-handlers, unless there is
some implicit order to be taken care of, but this doesn't seem to be
the case here.
