As the author of testglue.c, it was designed for ROM debug monitors
for testing libgloss and newlib on bare metal hardware. The debug
monitors weren't real operating systems, just something to download S
records or other formats to load the program and execute it. Exit
had to exist so code would link, and also to drop you back to the
debug monitor prompt.
I think the C language has evolved since the early 90s when I wrote
that file. :-)
