Skipping the entire testsuite seems like an awfully big hammer, when we can use the SKIP mechanism to only skip the tests that are failing. While this means releasing either poorly tested or potentially buggy libcairo-perl, we can at least be sure that most of it works, and ensure we maintain the same level of tests for any potential updates or security fixes post-release.
