I was more thinking of weird cases like failure to fork or so. But
according to api-run-command.txt:
. If a system call failed, errno is set and -1 is returned. A diagnostic
is printed.
So you actually don't need it. In this case, following Johannes's
suggestion, you'd return -1 from the main function, which is unusual but
AFAICT is OK.
