As one would have expected, I've found a problem. The c++ std. says that
Automatic objects are not destroyed as a result of calling exit(), and so, a
automatic PgDatabase in main() (or most anywhere, actually), would not have
it's destructor called during an exit(), thereby leaving junk shm. segments
around. I'm not sure that an atexit can be called on a member function with no
argument, so I'll do some experimenting with macros and temporary block
insertion. Better ideas welcome ;)
