I tried it with Emacs-22.1 (from Debian testing) and with the following
differences:
- started emacs as "SHELL=/bin/bash emacs22 -Q"
- did not do C-x C-k (which is not bound to any command, but to a submap
containing various macro-expansion bindings).
the result is that after typing `exit' and RET the shell process
is terminated.
I suspect that the "-Q" is key and that your problem is linked to some
customization of yours.
