you are correct.
i suggest that we must add this requierment to ''about this test'':
it is not allowed to remove or change the error handler in such a way
that an failure to create a process is not reported.
ok?
languages without error handlers are supposed to check their return
values or some such. perhaps that is needed in ''about this test'', too?
