This is apparently a problem with wine, not with mingw - I ran your
program on a win32 box and it works correctly.

I tested various other things and I am fairly sure wine is not executing
the destructors or atexit handler at all.

I haven't tried this with a different win32 compiler and wine, as I
don't have one.

Maybe you should file a bug against wine?
