Right. I've confirmed that it works if we put (System/exit 0) in the finally clause of clojure.main/-main.
I'll get that in an updated patch.Should we consider all exits from clojure.main/-main to be "normal", i.e., is the 0 code there appropriate? We could set it to 1 for exceptions caught by clojure.main/-main itself. A developer always has the option to call (System/exit x) manually if desired. Thoughts?
