Sure. In CroquetVMTests we have a number of tests to make sure we have 
all the required plugins. I would like to count joystick and midi plugin 
to those but the Unix VM doesn't have them. Therefore:

CroquetVMTests>>expectedFailures
   Smalltalk platformName = 'unix'
     ifTrue:[^#(testJoystickTabletPlugin testMIDIPlugin)].
   ^#()
