+// On Unix-like platforms, libc::abort will unregister signal handlers

+// fclose streams, with the side effect of flushing them so libc bufferred
+// output will be printed.  Additionally the shell will generally print a more

+// instruction" that intrinsics::abort would cause, as intrinsics::abort is
+// implemented as an illegal instruction.
