SKIP blocks only skip tests if the condition is met, in the test as it stands
now it skips it on Windows since it requires a Unix shell:
+SKIP: {
+ skip "cancel test requires a Unix shell", 2 if $windows_os;
On all other platforms the test will execute and count towards the overall test
result of the suite.
If we want the test to run but not fail the entire test suite if it fails then
it should use a TODO block instead, but that’s intended for tests known to fail
and this doesn’t seem to fall in that category.
