I've ran make fullcheck on
- x86_64-linux-gnu
- arm-linux-gnueabihf (Raspbian)
- i686-pc-mingw32
- MSVC 2012 (tested by replacing binaries built with i686-pc-mingw32 and 
running test again)

All tests passed, except the thing mentioned below. When disabling the 
checks for --skip and --until, it passes.

I've found one non-critical bug on MSVC and minGW that I didn't get 
earlier because I didn't run fullcheck on Windows yet.  In test_flac.sh, 
I got this

When trying to do this by hand, I get this

Apparently there's something with the dot there that doesn't work in 
Windows, because using skip with only minutes and seconds (and no 
fraction) works.

I don't think this is critical enough to delay a release however.
