The code in __do_global_dtors_aux is supposed to handle multiple calls
regardless of how they occur!

We've got two possible bugs -- the first is obviously a bug since we now
know __do_global_dtors_aux is supposed to handle multiple calls.

The second might be a bug, then again it might not.  Who knows what gross
things are buried deep in the Unixware C library :-)
