For quite some time we've wanted unit tests for our test harnesses which
verify issues like correct end-to-end handling of crashes and hangs,
including generation of proper stack traces.

It's not just a per-platform issue, but a per-harness per-platform issue,
so fixing this across the board isn't trivial.

This has never quite bubbled up to the top of our priority stack, but if
it's been causing lots of pain, maybe we can increase the priority of this.
