I've read clarifications in the past saying that finalizers can't be expected to run before your program exists, but they will run at "some point" after a gc. Or more specifically, at some point when a gc happens?
Technically, for better or for worse, you could manage an atomic reference count in finalizers if you wanted to know about the state of their executions?
