NAK, that would go against the script's contract as detailed in the comments.
There shouldn't be any output in case the code name provided is invalid, the
status is supposed to be reflected by the return value. There were a few
problems I fixed, though.

How about

http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=buildscripts.git;a=commitdiff;h=3153ec59c323cdc2efb3d394f0e4e2f98ca28c93

and

http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=buildscripts.git;a=commitdiff;h=8bb92fd510b40fe80759460fb96c1fafa1423fba

instead?
