Public bug reported:

If an exception happens in the startup phase of keystone (not handling a
request) it falls through to the handler @fail_gracefully which is
designed to print a big warning message and exit the application.

This makes sense for running keystone but in the case of tests what it
means is that the exit() call shuts down the subunit thread running the
tests and leads to difficult to diagnose failures being reported - or
missed.

In the case of testing @fail_gracefully should fail very ungracefully.
