Why would you blacklist these tests? They are useful.
I agree with Skip's latest message on python-dev: if you blacklist
things you are removing some coverage.
Do note that the most resource-consuming tests are already enabled only
when -usomething is passed.

In the patch I've removed -l, which I've never seen do anything useful.
