Hmm, we did it for kfmclient when fixing a return code problem last year
(discovered when used in xdg-open IIRC)
In the current case the fix is not as important. On the other hand it is not
very likely anyone has checks for --help return code, otherwise it would have
been discovered earlier :)
Cheers,
