You may not remember about this (or care anymore), but Codecenter now
returns an exit status of 0 instead of 1 on normal termination. This is
in version 4.1, which has not yet been announced publicly but is available
(add codecenter.new; codecenter). It might work better in other ways also
(but then again it might not :-)

Sorry this took a ridiculously long time to resolve.
