Under Linux, LocalPRocess does not give me the exact exit code the child process gave.

Created this sample app duo:
lpchild package:

#include <Core/Core.h>

using namespace Upp;

CONSOLE_APP_MAIN
{
	SetExitCode(-42);
	Cout() << "Exited with " << GetExitCode() << "!\n";
}

lpparent package:

#include <Core/Core.h>

using namespace Upp;

CONSOLE_APP_MAIN
{
	LocalProcess lp("lpchild");
	String t, tt;
	while (lp.Read(t)) {
		if (t.GetCount())
			tt << t;
	}
	Cout() << "Child said:\n";
	Cout() << tt;
	Cout() << "Child exited with: " << lp.GetExitCode() << "\n";
}

output:

Child said:
Exited with -42!
Child exited with: 214

I saw no other API member that could give the real code.
