void kjb_abort(void);

DESCRIPTION

This function is basically a wrapper for abort(). However, it makes sure that cleanup is done before aborting, which is quite useful for debugging when there are child processes involved, because the children would otherwise get the abort signal as well, and in that case, which process does the corefile belong to? In addition, kjb_abort() does not abort() in production code. In this case, a simple error message is printed.

This software is not adequatedly tested. It is recomended that results are checked independantly where appropriate.
