Comment (by dd32):

 To test it, I simply added that example to the functions.php unit tests:
 {{{
 +       function test_wp_die_with_wp_error() {
 +               wp_die( new WP_Error( 'test', 'test' ) );
 +       }
 }}}

 and got the fatal error as stated.

 It turns out that the Ajax wp_die() handler handles it correctly, but the
 `WP_UnitTest` wp_die handler doesn't:
