4788	django selftests should skip tests bound to fail	mir@…	Kevin Kubasik	"There are some cases where selftests must fail, e.g. for mysql with a transaction enabled storage engine, the serialization selftests don't work because mysql tests foreign key constraints prematurely.

Ideally, the test frame work should allow to skip tests properly, so that at the end of the tests you get a bottom line like:

200 tests passed; 14 skipped; 1 failure
