The documentation reads:

    kill-emacs:
    Exit the Emacs job and kill it.  ARG means no query.
    If emacs is running noninteractively and ARG is an integer,
    return ARG as the exit program code.

The last sentence should read "If ARG is an integer, return ARG as the
exit program code", since the code at line 521 in emacs.c is always
activated if the argument is an integer.  Also, it should document
that if ARG is a string, it is forced as pending terminal output.
