Every time I come across this piece of brokenness, I say, "I should
make it skip this test so 'make build' completes without errors", but
then just before I type "cvs commit", I say, "No, wait! I should fix
the libc/kernel FP stuff so the tests actually work!" Then I try to
get it working for a while and eventually put it off until later...

Anyway, yes, you should fix it. :-}
