The most direct way would be to use exitWith, though it feels a bit
weird: http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/6.12.1/html/libraries/base-4.2.0.0/System-Exit.html#v:exitWith

This may not be suitable if you want to be able to make exitWith calls
of your own, because you won't be able to tell the exceptions apart.

Cheers,
Max
