I should point out that all 6 failures in t9001 have the same characteristic - signal 34.

Oh. Then the notion from my other mail of "if it's die(), then other tests would presumably see similar failures" might be true. ;)

When running 

/home/git/git/t/trash directory.t9001-send-email: git send-email --from="Example [off-list ref]" --to=nobody@example.com --smtp-server="/home/git/git/t/trash directory.t9001-send-email/fake.sendmail" --transfer-encoding=8bit 0001-Second.patch longline.patch
fatal: longline.patch:35 is longer than 998 characters
warning: no patches were sent
/home/git/git/t/trash directory.t9001-send-email: echo $?
162

So this is strange. Where is perl run? I'd like to catch the completion inside git.
