I see, I could've misunderstood.

Marking tests which cause testsuite to hang as XFAIL sure is incorrect. We can 
change those to do nothing when they are compiled for arm. I suggest we retrurn 
77 from those tests so Automake will report those tests as skipped. Adding 
comments about tests which are skipped/expected to fail in Makefile.am would be 
also nice.

No, I don't think that's what he meant; the other tests we execute there
run quite reliably right now, but his local test environment is unreliable
right now.

Also, marking the tests as expected failing doesn't really help, if the
tests hang rather than fail cleanly, as it ends up timeouting the test run
anyway. They would need to be marked entirely unsupported in that case.

I'll see if I can try to pinpoint what's failing.
