How to get around MacPorts assuming that Exit code: 1 is a failure?
I am working on a Portfile from which I want to call the `unifdef` command. The manpage for `unifdef` says: Exit status is 0 if output is exact copy of input, 1 if not, 2 if trouble. The whole reason I am running `unifdef` is to change the output, so I *want* it to return 1. However, when I put this in my Portfile, it interprets this as a failure.

I had to escape the brackets, but after that, it worked. Thanks!
