minor nit:
I would prefer this was 'if test $exit_code -eq 0 && ! list_contains ...'

ie. the test on exit code comes first (and no need for the double quotes). The whole if..elif.. chain is about testing the exit code, with a couple of exceptions ...

The same comment applies to the second patch with exit code 141/SIGPIPE.
