So far, any test that detects that it is unable to run on the current
hardware SKIPs instead of FAIL.  For example, a test that requires
multiple physical CPUs and detects a single CPU box will call SKIP().
I think this is better than statically defining it in the Makefile,
since it's possible that a certain feature may be available later on
later revisions of VT hardware; the test would be the best place
(IMHO) to make that determination.
