Looking at the code (nasl_do_exit in openvas-libnasl/nasl/nasl_misc_funcs.c) I would guess I does not make a difference aside from explicitly setting the return value to 0. But as Eric said, I think it would be good style for the NASL scripts to use the return value to let the world know what happened to them even if the don't find anything newsworthy. Even an exit(0) would be good if it signified "NVT ran okay, did not find a vulnerability".
