Comment:

 with the patch, we now get with the initial example:
 {{{
 tarte% sage -t a.sage
 sage -t  "a.sage"
 Exception raised by doctesting framework. Use -verbose for details.
          [1.4 s]

 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
 The following tests failed:


         sage -t  "a.sage" # Exception from doctest framework
 Total time for all tests: 1.4 seconds
 }}}
 and the whole doctest still produces 22 Segfaults (see #7773). However,
 instead of say:
 {{{
 sage -t  tests/benchmark.py
 A mysterious error (perhaps a memory error?) occurred, which may have
 crashed d\
 octest.
          [62.3 s]
 }}}
 we now get:
 {{{
 sage -t  tests/benchmark.py
 The doctested process was killed by signal 14
          [62.5 s]
 }}}
 which is more informative. I thus give a positive review.
