I do not think this is a good idea.  It would be too easy to accidently
skip a test for an algorithm which is actually included.   A runtime
tests seems to be better.  I did it this way:

PASS: t-lock
PASS: prime
      hash algorithm 5 not available - skipping tests
      hash algorithm 5 not available - skipping tests
      hash algorithm 5 not available - skipping tests
PASS: basic
PASS: keygen

By inspecting the test output you would immediately notice that an
algtoithm was not tested.  I consider disabling algorithms an exception
and thus the diagnostics won't harm.  For MD2 I would silent the
diagnotics, though.
