Oh, good point.  Maybe it's better to consistently have --help/--version
return status 0 (we successfully printed output) or 1 (we encountered
write failure) regardless of the program being executed (which means
true is doing it right, and 'false --version' is the odd man out,
opposite to what the most recent patch proposal does).  I'd wait for
Paul and/or Jim to weigh in on this, since they made the decisions
behind the current unpatched behavior.
