Comment (by nickm):

 I've gone over the code.  I found 19 unproblematic uses of exit(), and 24
 ones that we should fix.  I annotated the good ones with "exit ok" and the
 bad ones with "XXXX bad exit" in
 `35746a9ee75608e7b2393e4519adca602bf2615f`.

 There are probably a few bad exits in particular that will account for
 most of the undesirable exit() calls: the ones in hibernate.c; a few of
 the ones in main.c; and one or two in config.c.
