There are differences between C++ exit and C exit, as the former performs additional C++ cleanup - that said I'm unclear if we actually end up executing the C or the C++ version of the function! But we don't use the `std::` namespace in this area. Also we have the `ALLOW_C_FUNCTION` macros to make it clear that it is correct to be calling something like `::exit` or `::abort` rather than `os::exit` or `os::abort`.
