Well, I already did that in the past.
Lib/test/test_ftplib.py: @skipUnless(False, "FIXME: bpo-32706")
=> skipped since 2018年01月29日
Lib/test/test_nntplib.py: @unittest.skipIf(True, "FIXME: see bpo-32128")
=> skipped since 2017年11月25日.
Oh, I even closed https://bugs.python.org/issue32128. Well, I'm kind
of tired of waiting for fixes in nntplib, so I decided to immediately
close the issue. I'm quite sure that nobody will fix it "soon" :-)
(hint: there FIXME is still there)
I'm not sure about documenting the module as "unmaintained".
