That sounds nice in theory, but ...

... this done in the testsuite() function, doesn't suite.shell_path
always gets some non-NULL value? Perhaps in a later step we will
add a mechanism to allow suite.shell_path to be NULL when we know
we are running an executable, or something?
Leaving readers in a bit of suspense may, especially in a series
that is short like this, be a good technique to entice them to keep
reading, perhaps, but anyway, if that is what is intended, a simple
"this feature is not used in this step, but we will take advantage
of it soon in a later step" would be a good idea.
