Well, on the shell and every other program, an exit status of 0 means
success, and a higher one means an error of some kind.
Btw: /bin/false ; echo $? ==> 1
/bin/true ; echo $? ==> 0
Also, the SIGCHLD is sent when a child exits, no matter if in error.
You should then check the $? for the reason of the exit and for the
return code, if exited normally.
