Great list, thanks.

The ones that fail to be run/skipped when run under discovery can probably be 
fixed by moving them to the more modern unittest 'skip' functions instead of 
depending on being run under regrtest and using the test.support resource 
functions.  When run directly they should not skip due to a resource not being 
set, but when run under regrtest (I'm not sure how you detect that but if there 
isn't currently a way we should make one via test.support) they should respect 
the resources.

Unittest doesn't yet have a concept of resources, but I believe there is an 
open issue for it, so at some point we will hopefully be able to move all 
resource management to unittest and out of regrtest.  But not yet.
