Thanks. The logic used to determine the success or failure of a step
is pretty simple:

if (rc == 0)
stepstatus = wxT("s");
else
stepstatus = steps->GetString(wxT("jstonerror"));

Which is the reason why you see 0's show up as "success". The non-zero
exit codes will show the same status as the
pgagent.pga_jobstep.jstonerror column holds for the step in question.
