Subject: Tail call (exec) at the end of run-sbcl.sh
X-Git-Url: http://repo.macrolet.net/gitweb/?p=sbcl.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=6574cbfa9d13afc3b4d55cc2fa5777b34c69444a

Tail call (exec) at the end of run-sbcl.sh

exec-ing into the runtime executable doesn't hurt and helps rlwrap.

Suggested by William Cushing (lp#1249183).
