Merge branch 'jn/gc-auto'

"gc --auto" ended up calling exit(-1) upon error, which has been
corrected to use exit(1).  Also the error reporting behaviour when
daemonized has been updated to exit with zero status when stopping
due to a previously discovered error (which implies there is no
point running gc to improve the situation); we used to exit with
failure in such a case.

* jn/gc-auto:
  gc: do not return error for prior errors in daemonized mode
