The tests in the canvas/philip directory are basically just snapshots of the tests created by Philip Taylor which he has hosted here: http://philip.html5.org/tests/canvas/suite/tests/

IIRC, they've all been submitted to the w3c as well: http://w3c-test.org/html/tests/submission/PhilipTaylor/

So, as a general rule we avoid modifying our local copies of the tests if we find any issues. Instead, if you are 100% positive that a test has issues or is incorrect/outdated then you should contact Philip directly and tell him what's wrong with the test. If he agrees, he'll update the tests, and then we'll grab the latest copies and skip the faulty tests in the meantime.

I'm doubtful that Philip had that many errors in his tests as your latest patch shows. So, either we have old versions of those tests and the spec has changed or something (also unlikely) then you might want to take a second look at the validity of your changes to the tests.
