AFAIU, the only thing that FAIL should be used for, is if gdb is 
behaving incorrectly.  In this case, gdb is not involved, this is just 
expact spawning a process for gdb to attach to.

I thought about that as well, but I think there are cases were spawned 
processes are killed through other means.

Maybe we can do this by default, and then add a parameter to disable 
that to deal with those cases.
