Fixes #1465 using the narrower design requested in the maintainer review of #1474. This replaces that closed redesign;
IO(U32)main's result is still ignored.Change
IO.exit(code: U32) -> IO(Unit)and a distinctExit{code}IO opcode. A valid exit writes nothing, including no empty stderr line. No user-defined foreign-effect workaround.IO.exitandIO.diecodes fail with status 1 instead of OS modulo-256 wrapping.IO.diestill writes its caller-supplied message and newline.term_pak.Actual evidence
Linux x64, real generated programs, not source assertions:
before, never the continuation'safter.kept, exits 0 in all four lanes, not its returned 37.--checkupexercised all five opcode consumers with empty PATH, including their expected nonzero termination cases; no claim that its aggregate process returned 0.Baseline wrapping is the issue/maintainer's reported observation; it was not redundantly rerun to confirm it. Mini-cluster/GPU gates were not run.
