Skipped tests indicate incomplete test coverage.  Whilst this is
not a test failure or other error, it's still not complete
success, so according to the universal traffic lights coloring
scheme, yellow/brown seems more suitable than green.  However,
it's more informational than cautionary, so instead we use blue
which is a universal color for information signs.  Bold blue
should work better on both black and white backgrounds than
normal blue.

A very minor nit (feel free to ignore it): IMHO, it should be nice
to state explicitly in the commit message that blue is already used
by other testsuite-related software to highlight skipped tests; you
can report the examples of at least Automake, Autotest and prove --
and extra kudos if you find further examples ;-)

Thanks.  Will tweak the proposed log message to include the above
when queuing the updated patch.
