I don't see why that would be?  We just have to sample the exit status
of the hook script, and if it matches a specific value, we skip the
test.  If the hook script crashes, the exit status will be some other
value, e.g., 128+<signal_number>, 127 if the script doesn't exist, 126
if the script exists but is not executable, etc.  So we just sample $?
and if it is, say, 83 (ascii 'S') we skip the test; otherwise, we run
the test.  How would an error inside the hook "bring down the whole
test run"?

Cheers,
