Thanks for the report.  This is actually a fairly old bug with
set -e that's just been exposed by the exit status change.  What's
really happening is that cleanup itself is triggering a set -e
exit incorrectly because evaltree cached the value of eflag prior
to the function call.

This patch should fix the problem.
