exit after binding.irb' calls IRB's exit` and raises an error.

expected:

# binding.irb
exit #=> terminate program

actual just after binding.irb:

binding.irb
exit 

From: /home/ko1/ruby/src/trunk/test.rb @ line 2 :

    1:
 => 2: binding.irb
    3: exit #=> terminate program
    4:
    5: __END__

Not so big issue.
