| Description: Fix Mayhem issue |
| The idea behind this patch is that if there is a problem to set the HOME |
| directories no additional processes can exist and so we should *really* |
| exit. Somehow the printf_exit() function does some logic which ends up |
| in an endless loop and thus forcing the exit will help here. |
| . |
| Unfortunately this does not solve the issue completely since inside the |
| Exit call a "Segmentation fault" happens - so some broken pointer handling |
| seems to happen somewhere before. |
