Right.

Mostly, it's that it ignores things like ctrl^c -- it ignores ANY
failure. I don't think that it should.

In cases where QEMU crashes, the caller will now get an exception -- but
the cleanup will still faithfully execute. There are some exceptions we
may genuinely wish to suppress here, but it's hard to enumerate which
ones without going too broadly.

It's fine to exclude this for now, but I think it's still something we
want eventually.
