See the archive about the reasons, it has been discussed to death many times.

To me, the main reason is:

A test fails but a fix is not easy or not possible right now. To keep
it in our radar, it is still added to our tests suite and listed as
"expected failure". This is very common practice.

That being said, as Stas wrote, feel free to fix them all (the bugs) :-)

Cheers,
