 Log Message:
 Skip t_exect test because it makes test machines to hang
 
 exect(NULL,NULL,NULL) generates 15859 times SIGTRAP on amd64
 Currently exect(3) is misdesigned -- see PR port-amd64/51700 and it
 needs to be redone from scratch.
 
 This test affects amd64 releng machines causing tests to hang or
 fail. As there is little point to test interface that is still not,
 designed and implemented and implemented and is breaking tests - skip it
 unconditionally for all ports.
