Comment:

 Added some documentation and comments in updated branch bug8531.
 There are a few bug fixes in there too.

 Rationale behind exit(-1) is that it turns into highest available
 number which hopefully won't collide with a wrapping shell script
 trying to exit with different codes depending on error (like 1, 2, 3).
 I changed it to 255 since that's more explicit.

 Created new tickets #9086 and #9087.
