Sorry if I'm misunderstanding what's going on here, but with this 
applied I'm still getting the tests skipped when I just run "check-ld".  

Running /home/palmer/life/binutils-gdb/ld/testsuite/ld-undefined/undefined.exp ...
UNTESTED: undefined
UNTESTED: undefined function
UNTESTED: undefined line

                === ld Summary ===

# of expected passes            797
# of expected failures          8
# of untested testcases         26
# of unsupported tests          175
./ld-new 2.39.50.20220930

I always kind of end up fumbling my way around these test suite 
infrastructure things though, so sorry if I'm just lost...
