Nice!  Looks good to me.  Could you also add a node to
doc/ref/srfi-modules.texi?

Perhaps you could run them anyway and throw 'unresolved when they appear
to fail?  The guardian tests do that when it’s impossible to determine
whether it’s a failure or whether some unrelated phenomenon prevented
the test to pass.
