$SIG{__DIE__} gets called even for exceptions that would be caught by a
surrunding eval block, so this should at the very least be:
$SIG{__DIE__} = sub { BAIL_OUT(@_) unless $^S };
However, that is still wrong, because die() and BAIL_OUT() mean
different things: die() aborts the current test script, while BAIL_OUT()
aborts the entire 'prove' run, i.e. all subsequent scripts in the same
test directory.
