>Description:
kadmin does not exit with nonzero status upon failure of operations
given with the -q option (or interactively, but that's not a big
problem.) Specifically, our account management system needs to be able
to send ank, modprinc, and cpw queries create, enable/disable, and
passwd principals. kadmin should exit with nonzero status when these
operations fail because of policy violations, bad passwords, or
nonexistent principals.

root# echo $?
0
root# /opt/sbin/kadmin -p my_princ/actmgr@REALM -w "my unfortunately exposed password" -q "modprinc -expire now -allow_tix nonexistent_princ@REALM"
root# echo $?
0
root# /opt/sbin/kadmin -p my_princ/actmgr@REALM -w "my unfortunately exposed password" -q "cpw -pw bad_password smack@UCHICAGO.EDU"
