I am curious did you even run these tests?   I can't possibly see how
the tests would have passed with this change.  At the very least you
have taken this test from linear to exponential time complexity.

This change is a deep bug. 

This exit is a forked child process (not from the test itself). That a
few lines earlier in the test I test the value of in waitpid.

Also in your change commit comment if no where else you should have
called out that you were making a semantic change to the test.
