Hi Mike,
thanks for the fast reply and sry for my late response (got distracted
from this issue the past weeks).
Of course u're absolutely right. I obviously mistook the pmain-return
value for the actual status return value. So everything is fine on
LuaJIT's end and the errorlevel correctly shows a problem as well as
records the error in the errorchannel.
The issue was actually on our side (our script not correctly checking
the errorlevel and not redirecting the error-channel, but rather only
checking/redirecting the standard output channel).
So sorry for the noise.
Regards,
Stefan

I see from the code-base that in case of an error LuaJIT (aka:
pmain) doesn't return any errorcodes at all.
That's not true. A simple test could have shown you that before
posting. If you throw an error to the top level or use os.exit(n),
it *does* set the error code (POSIX shell examples):
$ luajit -e ''; echo $?
0
$ luajit -e 'error("foo")' 2>/dev/null; echo $?
1
$ luajit -e 'os.exit(42)'; echo $?
42
