Please don't skip unstable tests on gitlab only. If they're
unstable, then nobody wants to be running them and wondering
if these are flaky tests or real issues, whether theyr'e doing
it on gitlab or locally. (I know we already have a lot of these,
but the effect is that instead of saying 'make check-avocado'
you have to say 'GITLAB_CI=1 make check-avocado'.)
thanks
