That's an interesting and potentially useful meaning for a skip that isn't
expected:  Python is meant to be a "Batteries Included" offering, so if a
battery is missing, it can be helpful if the test suite tells you so.
Couple that with Guido's idea of supporting an override file, and my
obvservation that software can be taught new things <wink>, and see what
pops out.
