Thanks, Eli.  Indeed, "TRT" is not even clear here.
Some things are clearly not right, but if we look a bit further it
quickly gets murky.

Regarding your patch.  I'm not sure it's "TRT" but given the murky/messy
context it looks good to me.  Hopefully at some point someone can sit
down and think through the whole way we handle "quit" and try to clean
it up.
