Core devs,

I've written a script which monitors my project path for changes with
pyinotify [1] and automatically runs my test suite each time I save a
Python file.

I was doing this by calling subprocess, but someone helpfully pointed
me towards call_command[2]. However, this breaks my script, which is
using a loop that's baked into pyinotify's Notifier class.

The problem is that the handler function [3] calls sys.exit() if there
are any test failures. Given that the function is already done at this
point, it seems redundant.

I can just as easily go back to using subprocess, but it seems silly
to shell out of Python to call a Python function. Is there any reason
not to change this sys.exit() to a sys.stderr.write()?

Thanks for your time.

Shawn
