Thanks for the detailed suggestion.
Instead of using a file for putting out non portable syntax,
can we can use a similar logic as test_failure ?

Your test_bad_syntax_ function can be called from a subshell, and
its "exit 1" will not exit, no?

What is more important is that the increment to $test_bad_syntax
done in that function will not be propagated up to the main process
that runs the test framework.

Of course, that is why I mentioned communicating using the
filesystem.
