I thought about a couple of things:
  * Exiting a process with non-zero exit code might be preferable because 
leaving behind core files in situations like this doesn't make much sense: it's 
enough to output an error message into the log: less disk space consumed, 
especially if core dump is enabled.  From this perspective, aborting a process 
is a last resort when it's not possible to resolve the inconsistency of the 
run-time state by other means and continuing running might cause even more 
damage.
  * In some cases, it make sense to give the upper level code a choice to 
handle this (i.e., just disable the webserver and proceed with the start 
process).

It's up to you: if there is a reason to crash right here but not exit with 
non-zero code, this is fine with me.

As for the test, there is {ASSERT,EXPECT}_EXIT() as an alternative to 
{ASSERT,EXPECT}_DEATH() if you found that the process just exits with non-zero 
status instead of crashing.
