Which tests are you referring to? I run the tests that are shared with
SpiderMonkey using org.mozilla.javascript.drivers.JsDriver, which has
skip lists, see http://developer.mozilla.org/En/Running_the_Rhino_tests.
Those tests all pass for me, although I need to resync to pull down
any new tests that have been introduced on the SpiderMonkey side.

How are you running tests? Using
org.mozilla.javascript.drivers.StandardTests?
