Excluding Tests in Mustella

Hi,

After talking Alex and Carol, we've come up with a convention for excluding tests that need time for repairs or that are questionable. I've documented this on the Mustella wiki [1]. Basically, the ExcludeList[Mac|Win].txt file should be used only for tests that do not run on one operating system or the other. When you come across a test that is giving you trouble, comment it out and include in the comment the string, FIXME, along with a short note. Later we'll search for "FIXME" and begin addressing those test cases.

Where giving you trouble means you attempted to fix it but couldn't figure
out how or the time it would take to fix it isn't worth the investment
right now.
