Description:
mysql-test-run.pl expects the test tool to generate a log file that it can read to see for example why a test was skipped. If the test tool does not generate a log file(actually the log file is generated by redirection) mysql-test-run.pl will abort execution. That abort is not necessary since it's not a fatal error.

This will happen everytime on ActiveState perl where we have problem with redirection.

How to repeat:
Modify 'find_testcase_skipped_reason' to remove the $path_timefile and then run "./mtr --do-test=a"

Suggested fix:
Make test continue even if the test log file does not exist.
