Brett Cannon added the comment:

The problem is confusing new contributors.

"Why wasn't this test run?"
"Because you're not on OS X."
"Why wasn't this run?"
"I didn't have internet at the time."

It's noise that's unnecessary. People should be focusing on the coverage of the 
modules in the stdlib and not the tests themselves. Plus the process takes so 
darn long already I don't think it's worth the time to waste on covering the 
tests as well.
