I would leave this paragraph unchanged.  It's not necessary to delete
the reference to "a nonzero exit status" in order to later explain
what the nonzero values are.

I would move this along with the sitem list to the very end, to follow
the paragraph about the command_not_found handler.

Then change "If execution fails:" to "When there is no handler and
execution fails,".

As Daniel mentioned, this should be

sitem(127)(Your new text
