We need such declarations to disable random method combination from
the tests, because abcl doesn't support the long form of
define-method-combination yet.
If such things aren't present, the test doesn't run on abcl. I don't
think that's a reasonable
approach, because we can test non-clos things with the tests just fine.

I don't think the results of the tests are implementation-specific
anywhere. We certainly
didn't change any of the results to be abcl-specific in any way.
