--- Comment #1 from kelly at 219design dot com ---
I have located the commit that introduced the behavior change. I can clearly
see that the change was intentional, and yet I would still like to question
whether "-return-child-result" should be given special consideration.

Commit that introduced the unexpected "-return-child-result" outcome:

commit b0f492b90f3d13da8ac80437e6ecb9a87db4a75b (refs/bisect/bad)

    Indicate batch mode failures by exiting with nonzero status

    This commit causes GDB in batch mode to exit with nonzero status
    if the last command to be executed fails.
