As of right now, Tcl has some failing tests skipped, some todo'd, and  
other simply failing. Any failing tests should be properly todo'd --  
and the test harness should have some way of showing those as  
failures. Then users can know that everything works and developers  
can know what to fix.

APL does this with an environment variable. It sounds like a good way  
to go. Ideally, there would be multiple make targets for testing so  
developers or users could explicitly test the different conditions  
without the use of an environment variable.
