Paul, here's what it looks like:
------- Committed revision 40997 >>>

<<< Started new transaction, based on original revision 40998
' found in revision listter '
# echo $?

This made it extra hard to find where it actually failed as the \r in the printf made it nearly impossible to grep for the error printf string. =]
