The atexit() handler in the avisynth demuxer was added because there was a conflict in AvxSynth that arose due to their use of C++ global objects, particularly in relation to having added a logging function relying on log4cpp.
This conflict was responsible for causing a segfault on exit. It did not affect Windows with the (at the time) upstream AviSynth 2.5 and 2.6, nor does it affect AviSynth+. Unfortunately, none of this was actually shielded by ifdefs indicating the fact it was only needed for AvxSynth, so four years ago when AviSynth+ replaced AvxSynth as the handler for AviSynth scripts on Unix-like OSes, the fact that the atexit handler was no longer necessary was overlooked.
