Silent exit occurs when the test crashes the test-harness shell.  This
is an unfortunate side-effect of the way error output is managed by the
harness; the only way to detect it is to spot coredump files, or find
temp files that have never been removed, left behind after the "make".

What circumstances are causing the crash, you'll have to try to run down.
