Reading this I remember, that a Task-Structure contains a Cleanup_Code
pointer. However documentation about it is bad. 
What does the Standard-Cleanup do, and how do I (from "C") install my 
own CleanupCode? My Programs always have a central Cleanup-Code that
cleans up everything, if called from every point in the Program. 
So how do I get it there?
