It appears that this test has special functionality for naming the OSes
on which a given test is expected to fail:

XXX: FIXME: TODO:
    Tests that are expected to fail on a certain OS can be marked as
such by trailing the comment with a "skip:" section. Skips are tags
separated by space consisting of a $^O optionally trailed with
":osvers". In the latter case, all os-levels below that are expected to
fail. A special tag "all" is allowed for todo tests that should fail on
any system.

Test #157 has such a skip: tag, so -- if I'm interpreting the POD
correctly -- it does not need to be TODO-ed simultaneously.  Patched in
28586 and 28587.
