Well I do not think that the SEGFAULT needs to have special treatement
here, as long as the child does anything else than exit with 0 it's a
bug, that's why I think that we should fail the test in all other cases.

I guess that we can add special check for the regression with
WIFSIGNALED() && WTERMSIG() == SIGSEGV and produce slightly different
TFAIL message, but we should really fail all the other cases as well.
