i think acct01 handles this OK:
        if (errno == ENOSYS) {
            tst_resm(TCONF,
                 "BSD process accounting is not configured in this kernel.");
            tst_resm(TCONF, "Test will not run.");
            tst_exit();

although we could perhaps codify this nicely by adding a new 
tst_missing_support() or similar function that would do this kind of thing.  
first argument would be an explanatory message like "BSD process accounting is 
not configured in this kernel".  any suggestions for a better function name ?
