That's not unexpected since debian/tests/pkg-perl/smoke-skip is an
(optional) configuration file for the autopkgtest-pkg-perl framework
and is not related to building the package.

If you want to use the same list of tests to skip during build, you
can do something like

https://sources.debian.net/src/libipc-sharelite-perl/0.17-4/debian/rules


As for the
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-med/gbrowse.git/tree/debian/tests/pkg-perl/smoke-skip 
file:
It looks like you forgot the "t/" directory prefix for the test
file names.

I migt be able to try a build later today.
