Are you sure you removed all the .elc files under test first?  Since
this is a change in an ert macro, you have to do that to get meaningful
results.

Anyway, that condition-case is presumably there to allow checking for
failures?  I.e., the :expected stuff.

Instead of altering removing the condition-case there, wouldn't it be
possible to output the backtrace explicitly in the handler?
