Follow-up Comment #1:
That was an interesting problem. The issue is that child_error is changed in
wait_for_all() after exit() has already been called on (since we fall off the
end of main()). That means that it's too late by then to change the return
value. As a workaround for this problem we now call _exit() when this
happens, passing the correct return value. It might have been neater to
just call wait_for_all() before returning from main(). Anyway, the attached
patch (which I have committed to the development code) fixes the problem.
