I think that unless/until someone wants to submit a patch that makes the tests fail upfront, we should use Fernando's patch; it's an improvement over the current situation. I'm actually not entirely sure if skipping or failing everything if the tests are run as root is a good idea -- for instance, neither skipping nor failing seems appropriate for Gentoo's root-in-a-sandbox situation.
