Was that tst-spawn6? We'd probably have to disable that as well, you can
just add 

tests-unsupported += tst-spawn6

to sysdeps/mach/hurd/Makefile

Possibly also test-lfs:

tests-unsupported += test-lfs

You can run on master to get the list of current expected failures.

> Could you please point me to a specific test case

Actually all cases that actually execute something, fail. So for
instance the very first, csu/test-as-const-rtld-sizes

You can use

./testrun.sh csu/test-as-const-rtld-sizes

Then it's simple: we have to fix that first.
