Further analysis reveals that ProcessingTerminated is a pure Java-side construct so there is currently no way to hook in from Lisp, so that part of the concern is unfounded. Still, calling System.exit() seems really wrong. Need to reconsider the reason under which ProcessingTerminated exception was introduced.
Sounds like ext:exit has been converted to do ProcessingTerminated, but it shouldn't actually do that. This strongly suggests that too much has been changed over to ProcessingTerminated; the original reason for converting some uses over is still valid, because in order to work as a library, abcl should avoid exitting.
