Well, I think we should be good even if some exit(3) calls remain
because the envirenment in which the vfork() call happen is already
dedicated to the running test (with flushed stdio, setpgrp() call), see
__run_test() and the fork() call just before running the
fixture/test/teardown. Even if the test configures its own exit
handlers, they will not be run by its parent because it never calls
exit(), and the returned function either ends with a call to _exit() or
a signal.
