Indeed. More generally, I'd question the point of automated testing if
people try to work around serious problems rather than fixing them. And
an interpreter crash in the test suite *is* a serious problem, IMO.

Of course, it may turn out to be an unfixable Tcl or Apple bug, in which
case working around would become more interesting.
