If I can handle the error and clean-up there is no point in abandoning the
tests.

Anyway, this is shying away from exception handling (as AFAIK things like
dereferencing null pointers only throw exception when using MSVC???) and
getting much closer a current discussion on accu-general and I don't see the
point in starting it again here.
