I'm not sure if (in this case) a missing unzip should be as silent as
you suggest. The danger is, that s.o. makes a change, runs `make
test`
and is then conviced that nothing broke. So I think that the test
should fail, but with a more descriptive error than it is now.
The downside is, you need unzip, svn, what ever more to run the test
suite.
I was attempting to say that if we're skipping tests we should say
so, and not just drop them silently like the code that Johannes
posted. Really, I guess the ideal would be for there to be a test
harness that would run all the tests and report skips and errors in a
report at the end rather than in the middle.
