My guess:
  quote.test
  link.test
  depdemo-relink.test
Although none of those would lead to skipping anything.  Hmm.  Anyway,

quote.test is fixed using this patch from Noah Misch:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libtool-patches/2004-10/msg00126.html

link.test was discussed yesterday, but nobody officially submitted a 
patch for it. The attached works for me.

Finally, depdemo-relink.test is the resurrection of hardcode-relink2, I 
believe, which is a long-standing bug on cygwin related to fileutils 
(coreutils, now) and how it munges filenames with/without .exe 
extensions.  I tracked down the problem at one point, but since cygwin 
has no coreutils maintainer right now, there's nobody to fix it.  It's 
not a libtool bug, AFAICT.

        * tests/link.test: be more robust in the presence
        of chatty libtool messages.
