Admittedly, the POSIX specification for exit() also uses octal. However, 0xFF immediately indicates the lowest 8 bits to me whereas I had to think a bit about the octal mask.
I agree that 0xFF is readability improvement over 0377. BTW, _exit.2 manpage has the same problem. I'd like it to be fixed too. -- Jakub Wilk
