[issue10213] tests shouldn't fail with unset timezone

[R. David Murray]

My first reaction to this was the feeling that the error message was correct and appropriate :)

But it is true that since it doesn't represent a failure in Python itself it shouldn't be reported as a failure.  The test should be skipped, though, rather than just doing a continue, so that it appears as a skip in verbose test output.  (You do that by raising a unittest.SkipTest exception.)
