Thanks, Andrej. That option had occurred to me, but I figured that shouldn't be the way to do things given that most other languages have a native exit function. Given that this code transformation isn't particularly difficult (put main in a try/catch, have a custom exception storing exit code, return the exit code in the catch block), would it be reasonable to do a feature request for a D-language-supported exit()?
