One problem I have noticed is that some packages have test suites (which 
are getting run via 'cygport test' invoking src_test()) which:

- require lots of extra dependencies to run, or
- don't succeed on Cygwin, or
- take an inordinate amount of time to run (exceeding the resource limits)

So I'm wondering if .cygport files need:

- an annotation to indicate tests shouldn't be run by this system (in 
RESTRICT? or somewhere new?)
- a separate TEST_REQUIRES to list packages which depended on for 
running tests?
