I've now reordered the exit code as you suggest in Emacs 28.1, and that
seems to make your use case work better, and doesn't seem to have any
adverse affect on the default configuration.

This code is ticklish, though, so I guess we'll just have to see whether
it has adverse effects on other setups.
