Today there was a spurious unit test crash on one of the build bots, which
turned out not to be reproducable.

It would be nice if in cases like that we could print a stack trace
automatically, so the build bot log gives us at least a hint as to what might
have caused the crash.

Attaching proposed patch. Works fine for me.
