From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.set-exception-handler

Originally I wanted to add a note, but decided to post a bug instead.

Missing documentation:

"On GNU/Linux, When an exception handler is called, PHP will end with exit code 0 instead of 255."

Although this may be logical/obvious, I still believe it should be documented.

It seems to be possible to change the exit code simply with an exit() call in the error handler. Could that be added to the doc as well, if it has no side effects?

It is logical and obvious; if we get into the business of including everything that is logical and obvious, about everything, on every page of the documentation, the manual would be huge, and useless.

Right. Added a note instead.
