Well, from a testing perspective, the crash is voluntary and it is
indeed ok:-)

It could. Another simpler option: add a "psql_voluntary_crash.sql" with
just that test instead of modifying the "psql.sql" test script? That would
keep the test exit code information, but the name of the script would make
things clearer?
Also, if non zero status do not look so ok, should they be noted as bad?
