If was found during stress-test run that a test may hang by 60 seconds.
It supposedly happens because SIGCHILD was received before sleep has
started.

Fix by looping by smaller chunks, checking $exited after each of them.
Then lost SIGCHILD would not cause longer delay than 1 second.

Submitting as proper patch. Note: I believe it does not relate to other issues
discussed in this thread.

Ah, of course.  If SIGCHLD interrupts, sets $existed in the handler,
then we won't go back to sleep.  But if the signal came before the
sleep starts, we spend full 60 seconds here before we check $exited.

Makes sense.
+my $counter = 0;
+while (not $exited and $counter < 60) {
+        sleep 1;
+        $counter = $counter + 1;
+}
+
 if (!$exited) {
         close($out);
         die "Command did not exit after reading whole body";
