+/* This function is responsible for calling all registered cleanup

+ fact that we have to handle to cancellation handler registration
+ methods: exceptions using try/finally and setjmp.
+
+ The setjmp method is always available. The user might compile some
+ code which uses this method because no modern compiler is
+ available. So we have to handle these first since we cannot call
+ the cleanup handlers if the stack frames are gone. At the same
+ time this opens a hole for the register exception handler blocks
+ since now they might be in danger of using an overwritten stack
+ frame. The advise is to only use new or only old style cancellation
