Summary: atexit not called for pythonservice (win32)

Initial Comment:
I have a couple of functions registered with atexit
which work fine when the program is executed on
command-line. But when I run the same as a windows
service, and stop the service using service interface,
these hooks never get call backs. The service does exit
normally (at least my program doesn't do os._exit() and
there are no exceptions).

I am using ActiveState's distribution of python, but I
would imagine this is non-specific.
