I don't know that it's worth the trouble of differentiating between having
the server not installed and the server installed but not running (or the
server installed and running but CYGWIN=server not set), so I'm not inclined
to worry about it;  skipping the tests should be good enough.

duplicate of ext/IPC/SysV/t/ipcsysv.t?
