What makes you think it's not in libc6? The "atexit" function is
declared in stdlib.h.
$ grep atexit /usr/include/stdlib.h
extern int atexit (void (*__func) (void)) __THROW;
/* Call all functions registered with `atexit' and `on_exit',
functions registered with `atexit' or `on_exit'. */
$ nm /usr/lib/libc.a | grep atexit
U __cxa_atexit
w __start___libc_atexit
w __stop___libc_atexit
atexit.o:
U __cxa_atexit
00000000 T atexit
cxa_atexit.o:
00000000 T __cxa_atexit
old_atexit.o:
00000000 ? __elf_set___libc_atexit_element__cleanup__
U __cxa_atexit

#include <stdlib.h>

void myexit (void)

fprintf (stderr, "I'm exiting!\n");
}
int main (void)

atexit (myexit);
return 0;

$ ./imexiting
I'm exiting!
