I think you would just have something like this in your test program's
mainline:
my &*EXIT = -> | { die "exit was called" }
and then you can use dies-ok. Bonus points for creating your own
exception class so that you can check that it was actually &*EXIT that
got you there, and not some random exception like "file not found".
