Actually, that was only the tip of the iceberg.
Many perl-based tests did the same thing (write only to the
log explaining why the test was being skipped).
This fixes all of them:

Subject: [PATCH] tests: write skip explanation from perl scripts also to
 outer stderr

* tests/CuSkip.pm (skip): New file/module/function, to help
the perl test scripts "skip" a test consistently, emitting
a diagnostic both into the log file and into the outermost
stderr stream that is more likely to be seen by a human.
* tests/check.mk (TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Add -MCuSkip.
* tests/misc/date-next-dow: Use CuSkip::skip in place of warn+exit-77.
* tests/misc/tty-eof: Likewise.
* tests/misc/uniq: Likewise.
* tests/rm/fail-eperm: Likewise.
* tests/misc/md5sum-newline: Likewise.  Also, s/program_name/ME/.
* tests/misc/ls-misc (setuid_setup, main): Likewise.
* tests/misc/pwd-long: Likewise, and add -I"$abs_srcdir" -MCuSkip
to the $PERL invocation command.
