During the review process of the previous commit (repack: rewrite the shell script in C), Johannes Sixt proposed to retain any exit codes from the sub-process, which makes it probably more obvious in case of failure.

As the commit before should behave as close to the original shell script, the proposed change is put in this extra commit. The infrastructure however was already setup in the previous commit. (Having a local 'ret' variable)
