--- Comment #3 from Todd Fiala <todd.fiala at gmail.com> ---
Getting this right causes some fair complication to the test runner logic.  I
think it is more fair to say:

If your test process (P1) creates new child processes (C1..CN), and you share
out your stdout/stderr to them, your test should expect to time out if you
don't ensure that  children C1..CN are cleaned up before P1 exits.

That, after all, is bad behavior.  I'm fine with our test system catching that
and flagging as a timeout.
