I'm not sure if we're talking at cross purposes here.  My expectation
was exactly what you describe: after hitting the error, I was expecting
to see a non-zero return code from the compiled executable, that being
the expected "implementation defined status ... that indicates
unsuccessful execution".

The problem I am trying to report / get help with is that, in my simple
test case, the exit status is 0, which on Cygwin I would interpret to
mean *successful* execution.
