CloseHandle is a generic function that returns a boolean indicating
whether or not the handle was closed - it really doesn't tell us
anything useful about what happened, unlike pclose().

Does something like this work?

diff --git a/job.cpp b/job.cpp
index 0611c93..08feb17 100644
--- a/job.cpp
+++ b/job.cpp
@@ -258,9 +258,8 @@ int Job::Execute()                                       }                               }

-
+                GetExitCodeProcess(h_script, (LPDWORD)&rc);                CloseHandle(h_script);
-                rc=1;
#else                               // The *nix way.
