OK, so it's just a clutter issue.

Is there a way to check whether a domain socket still has someone
listening on it? If so, why can't we just sweep the directory every X
minutes and nuke the dead ones, or do that on login/logout?

As an aside, I probably wouldn't have noticed this atexit() handler at
all if it wasn't printing irritating debug spew every time I quit an
app...
