When using cli mode the return code of php is not
set to the argument passed to "exit" but to 255
Setting the return code worked fine in 3.0.7, 4.0.6, and 4.1.2. Bug or feature?

tho@dev0:~> cat test.php
<?
exit(20);
?>
tho@dev0:~> php test.php
X-Powered-By: PHP/4.2.1
Content-type: text/html

tho@dev0:~> echo $?
255
tho@dev0:~>
