Sorry for the delay, but why do you think it's a bug? If you exec a command and the command fails, it is normal for shell process to quit. (because `exec cmd` replaces the shell with `cmd` and there is no place for `cmd` to return in your case) See man pages of exec and zshall (it contains a list of reserved words) for detail. If you have any other question, feel free to ask.
