Please, could you make constructive answers? I know that things can
break. But they are ways to work around them (have you heard of fault
tolerance?). I've reported the problem. The bug was tagged as wontfix
because the maintainer of the package doesn't care that things can
break in other packages and prefers to return with an exit status of 0
even if the program failed (which is against what an exit status is
meant for).

You are getting ridiculous. FYI, I don't use Windows and have never
used Windows. If you don't have constructive remarks, please shut up.
