The conversion to error_report() should also drop trailing \n.

Another bug (but probably worth cleaning up in a separate patch) -
exit(-1) is the same as exit(255), which is not a usual exit status
(although it DOES make xargs behave differently).

But seeing as how much of this file uses the more typical exit(1), we
should consistently use 1 in all places where we exit early.

Another weird use of exit(-1).
