it should skip tests for extensions that aren't importable (patch included)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. run tests on a platform that doesn't have boto
2. see errors
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect it to say "I couldn't run these tests, since boto is not installed." 
instead I see it say "There is an error!"

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

svn trunk, linux
