There's no reason that the run-time support for VMS/C can't return 1
to the O/S if the program exits 0. Unfortunately, there's really no
other resolution. Unix and IBM systems both treat zero exits as
success, lord knows why VMS decided to be different, but the problem
is not a problem, the O/S can be handed whatever's correct.
