I don't think this is a good solution, because these tests do not test any Mac-specific feature.

So you think it's ok to masquerade pixel tests as ref-tests in order to run them on bots?

Wouldn't it be better to create some kind of white-list for pixel tests which should be run on bots? In ideal future when lots of old tests are converted to ref-tests, there still be need to have a few pixel tests to catch rendering bugs, and I think these 2 can belong to that set.
