I agree with marto, not enough details

Probably just catching stdout/stderr is needed?

see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8184827/powershell-capture-the-output-from-external-process-that-writes-to-stderr-in-a

alternatively try to see if die() raises an exception ...

PS: FWIW, found the links by googling your title!

update

tested, you need to catch STDERR 

PS C:\Windows\system32> $cmdOutput = perl -e 'die(1)' 2>&1
PS C:\Windows\system32> echo $cmdOutput
perl.exe : 1 at -e line 1.
Bei Zeile:1 Zeichen:18
+ $cmdOutput = perl <<<<  -e 'die(1)' 2>&1
    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (1 at -e line 1.:String) [
+], Remot
   eException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : NativeCommandError

this looks like there are other options to catch RemoteException from within PS, but unfortunately that's OT and not my expertise.

FWIW: I tested a PS try but it didn't catch.
