Setting the exit status from sys.excepthook

[Steven D'Aprano]

I have script with an exception handler that takes care of writing the 
traceback to syslog, and I set it as the global exceptionhook:

sys.excepthook = my_error_handler


When my script raises, my_error_handler is called, as expected, and the process 
exits with status 1.

How can I change the exit status to another value, but only for exceptions 
handled by my_error_handler?
