 The Python spkg is notorious for never, ever passing SAGE_CHECK tests.
 There are always several test failures that really just indicate that
 certain extra software (tcl, for example) isn't installed. These errors
 are harmless, and fortunately we can easily avoid those tests. In `spkg-
 check`, we need
 {{{
 make EXTRATESTOPTS="-x test_foo -x test_bar" test
 }}}
 to exclude tests `foo` and `bar` from running.

 We need to decide what tests to exclude, on what platforms, and then
 change the spkg so that it succeeds with `SAGE_CHECK=yes`.
