You're right, it looks like the patch mentioned by Matthew [1] didn't
go through into R13B04.

I'm not sure what we should do about it. Changing supervisor relationship won't
fix the problem. Changing rabbit behaiviour when plugin crashes seem to be
no-option.

We could eventually try to catch this particular error in the status plugin
code, but the question is what time we should return to the rendered page.
Maybe a http/500 error page.
