[ghc-steering-committee] Proposal #631: Set program exit code by main return type, recommendation: accept something

[Arnaud Spiwack]

With the change of definition for 4, I'm leaving the votes open until
tomorrow (Friday). I'll tally the vote Friday European afternoon (I want to
post a decision on Github before the end of the week, because I'm off all
week next week).
