The sys.exit was being used at multiple locations within the script but
never imported. This lead to the script exiting with a error instead of
with the nicely formatted (useful) error output.

Thank you for the patch! Someone else submitted the exact same fix and it is now pending in the kbuild tree:

I am curious, how did you discover this? Did you hit one of those error paths?

Cheers,
Nathan
