though there are a few other notes if you do

    :helpgrep exit\_[- ]*\(code\|status\)

The seven results from this helpgrep command are all unrelated to the
exit code returned to the shell when exiting Vim itself.

In my slightly less-than-current Vim (7.2), I get 11 hits, of 
which one lands on :cq and one lands on patch 6.1.376 (anomalous 
exit codes for --version and --help).  The rough answer I gather 
is that "unless you quit with :cq or something dire happens, Vim 
after 6.1.376 should quit with an exit status of 0".
