nit: more unnecessary '&' on function pointers

nit: you could drop the '&& pass' and just do a break here.

nit: with a break above you could just test for i == 500 here.

I'd drop the argc == 2 test. You already know argc >= 2 at this
point. And, if it's > 2, then you want to call the test function
so the "Unsupported argument" abort will fire.

Not my area of expertise, but I only see nits, so
