-q, --quiet also suppresses exit status #137

I've been trying to use strptime and dateconv like I might grep -q but when -q is used the exit status is 0 for matches that would otherwise fail.

Current workaround is to redirect stderr and stdout to /dev/null

Hi, thanks for the report. This is such a major change of behaviour that I cannot possibly implement it.
