Please do include a comment and a pointer to the Apple bug report number if available else a pointer to the gcc PR number where we talk about why we are skipping it.  Something like: OS bug, see gcc PR/x.  Short, easy to understand and one can read the PR for details, if one is really, really bored.

Mike,
   I can't absolutely swear that the pthread issue fixed in radr://7905357. "testcase 20_util/shared_ptr/thread/default_weaktoshared.cc thread handling bug",
is the same bug. Certainly Apple gave pthreads in libSystem some TLC in Lion which will never be backported to earlier OS releases.
     Jack
