I don't know if we came to an agreement on
using test_might_fail for non-builtins
Non-builtins: okay.
Non-git commands: no.
That's just my take, though; if the project consensus is different,
who am I to resist it?
Hmm, the pros and cons between allowing test_might_fail on normal commands
vs introducing cmd_might_fail are questionable, though. I cannot think of
a case where we would want to tolerate death by signal or segv on non git
commands by using cmd_might_fail. At least I do not think that is a
common thing we would want to ignore, and in a rare case, it probably is a
good idea to say that explicitly with something like...

frotz
: the above might randomly segfault but we do not care
}
