Thanks Ralph

Should have considered that.

The assumption would be that anyone who is using the message suppression
option is (or at least should be) wrapping the job launch in some script or
other tool that records a non-0 RC  as a job failure or raises a flag for
them to say the job failed.

A command line issue of something like mpirun usually gives no indication
of the non-zero RC any well designed wrapper SHOULD catch it.

Not all distinctions - the exit status is non-zero. All that is suppressed
are the messages telling you what the error -might- have been.

      hide all distinction between a run that succeeded and one that
      failed?
