Another idea is to change the implementation of `not_in` to do the same thing that `check_list_or_lambda` does.  i.e. Return a lambda that iterates each item of the argument and uses substring match instead of exact match.  This way `@skipIf(archs=not_in('mips'))` would actually work.

Any of these 3 options sounds fine though.
