Thanks for all the tests.
FYI, I've confirmed all tests pass on these (all x86_64):
  Fedora 17
  Fedora 18
  Fedora rawhide
  Debian unstable

Also just tested on an i386 with minimal Fedora 18
and saw this factor failure due to lack of libgmp:
(also note the high SKIP count)

    bug-gmp-2_sup_128...
    factor.pl: test bug-gmp-2_sup_128 failed: exit status mismatch:  expected 
0, got 1
    bug-gmp-2_sup_256...
    factor.pl: test bug-gmp-2_sup_256 failed: exit status mismatch:  expected 
0, got 1

  # TOTAL: 532
  # PASS:  433
  # SKIP:  98
  # XFAIL: 0
  # FAIL:  1
  # XPASS: 0
  # ERROR: 0

I manually applied your patch,
    Subject: [PATCH] tests: correctly restrict factor test without GMP
and reran the test, which then skipped that internal sub-test, as intended,
and then passed:

    $ make check -C tests TESTS=misc/factor                                     
 :
    ...
    make[5]: Entering directory `/tmp/coreutils-8.19.167-0aeaa'
    PASS: tests/misc/factor.pl
    ...

FTR, here are the gnulib test results there:
