 NAME
    H5dont_atexit
 PURPOSE
    Indicates to the library that an 'atexit()' routine is _not_ to be installed
 USAGE
    herr_t H5dont_atexit(void)
 RETURNS
    Returns SUCCEED/FAIL
 DESCRIPTION
        This routine indicates to the library that an 'atexit()' cleanip routine
    should not be installed.  The major (only?) purpose for this is in
    situations where the library is dynamically linked into an application and
    is un-linked from the application before 'exit()' gets callled.  In those
    situations, a routine installed with 'atexit()' would jump to a routine
    which was no longer in memory, causing errors.
        In order to be effective, this routine _must_ be called before any other
    HDF function calls, and must be called each time the library is loaded/
    linked into the application. (the first time and after it's been un-loaded) 
 GLOBAL VARIABLES
 COMMENTS, BUGS, ASSUMPTIONS
    If this routine is used, certain memory buffers will not be de-allocated,
    although in theory a user could call HPend on their own...
