GNU Emacs 18.55.121 on NeXT 2.0

Is there any way to recuperate the exit status of a process called
with call-process?  process-exit-status requires a process object
argument, which call-process doesn't give you.  If it weren't
incompatible, the obvious solution would be to have call-process
return the exit status as its value.  Would this hurt any existing
code?
