You want the "pqinsert" program to return a non-zero exit status
if a data-product that it was to insert into the product-queue is
already in the product-queue.  Is that correct?

What should it return if it's invoked to insert multiple files,
only one of which is already in the product-queue?

Would it help to think of the "pqinsert" program as idempotent?
That is to say, if it returns with a success status, then the
file is guaranteed to be in the product-queue.

Steve Emmerson
