I was thinking about that. However if we make it a non-pointer, and it is destroyed during global destruction; if any other subsequent global variable destructor code tries to access `FilesToRemove`, that might crash in unexpected ways. Whereas here, as a pointer, it is clearly set to `NULL` and we already check `if (FilesToRemove != NULL)` in all the APIs.
