module finalizer - is there such a beast?

[Helmut Jarausch]

Hi,

when a module gets imported the statements not contained in
function definitions or classes are executed.
This can be thought of an initializer for the module.

But how can I get control when the module gets unloaded
either by Python's gc, Python's exit or by a module reload.

Many thanks for a hint,
