The POSIX documentation does not tell if it is possible to get negative value from `fclose` other than -1. Because -1 is reserved for indication of error, it should not be a regular return value (if yes, there should be mentioned that `errno` is not changed at success, to make detection of error possible). If negative non-error return value is allowed, it can not be -1.
It looks like that negative return values from the process appear as positive values like in the example above. The returned value is not the value passed to `exit`, that can be extracted by `WEXITSTATUS` (see `waitpid`).
