test_forkserver and test_process_forkserver_pickle were guarded by platform name (Cygwin and Windows) rather than by whether the forkserver start method exists, so they still failed on illumos.

Verified there, where get_all_start_methods() returns ['spawn', 'fork']: both now skip, and the full suite goes from 5 failing files to 3.

…available

Two tests were still not skipped: they were only guarded against Cygwin
and Windows.
