- A clean bailout mechanisms. Currently there is no 'nice' way for a
step to signal a failure, configuration always proceeds.

As of r11568 all configuration step's ->runstep() method is required to
return $self unless it wants to indicate a fatal error. An error string
is expected to be returned via the ->result() method. The steps we're
previously changed to conform to this behavior but Parrot::Configure now
requires it.
