That is mostly one waitpid() in parent, you don't have to overdo the
error conditions checks. There is always possibility that something
unexpected will happen. The most appropripate behavior is to fail the
test and expect user to check what has happened.

I'm not even sure that running pan from pan would work fine. There is
really tricky stuff with terminal controll and sessions that allows it
to kill test leftover processes which may cause really strange behavior.
