It restored our test framework's default EXIT trap, because without it 'stop_httpd' would have been invoked after 'test_done' as well. While invoking it twice is probably not that big of a deal (though arguably not the cleanest solution), invoking it after 'test_done' is definitely bad, because at that point the trash directory and thus $HTTPD_ROOT_PATH has already been removed, resulting in an ugly error:

  $ ./t5561-http-backend.sh
  <....>
  ok 14 - server request log matches test results
  # passed all 14 test(s)
  1..14
  apache2: Syntax error on line 11 of /home/szeder/src/git/t/lib-httpd/apache.conf: Cannot load modules/mod_alias.so into server: /home/szeder/src/git/t/trash directory.t5561-http-backend/httpd/modules/mod_alias.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

'test_atexit' doesn't overwrite the test frameowork's default EXIT trap, so we don't have to restore anything.
