Adding such exclusions to the Python spkg is now http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/12321. I see already that making the list of exclusions might be hard. On Ubuntu 11.10, the test suite skips a bunch of tests, and says "someone teach regrtest what tests are expected to be skipped on linux3". So we need to treat 3.0 Linux kernels differently from 2.6 ones. (The four tests quoted above are those that fail on sagenb.kaist.ac.kr -- Ubuntu 10.04.)
