OK, skip looks like what I want, but it results in something I don't understand. Here's a bare-bones example that causes the curios behavior: 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use Test;
BEGIN { plan tests => 1 };
skip (0, sub { ok(1) } );
I thought that would produce a single "ok", but here's the actual output: 
1..1
# Running under perl version 5.018002 for linux
# Current time local: Tue Dec 30 00:51:18 2014
# Current time GMT:   Tue Dec 30 05:51:18 2014
# Using Test.pm version 1.26
ok 1
ok 2
Why are there two ok's?

If I change that first param to 1, so that it skips the test, it outputs one ok: 

1..1
# Running under perl version 5.018002 for linux
# Current time local: Tue Dec 30 00:54:55 2014
# Current time GMT:   Tue Dec 30 05:54:55 2014
# Using Test.pm version 1.26
ok 1 # skip
???
