Dear Neil, et al.
Just to let you know; I tried it on the release version of 6.10.1 and it
worked as expected (first run, I waited; second I pressed Ctrl-C):
*Test> main
goodbye
ExitSuccess
*Test> main
goodbye
ExitFailure 2
*Test>
If not coming from system differences, the bug should sit in recent code.
Regards,
Philip
