I think you actually set it to 2, back in June, 2008, in what is now known as git revision aeb43984ec7c86aee220cc56146e0127de4ce2e3. See the change to runtime.c in https://github.com/golang/go/commit/aeb43984ec7c86aee220cc56146e0127de4ce2e3 . I don't know what Supervisor is but if it is running on a Unix system I don't think it should treat exit code 2 as success. I don't think we should document the exit status of panic except to say that it is non-zero.
