Comment:

 This patch will need testing in all shipped themes. The primary testing
 needed is to verify that skip links are hidden and become visible on
 focus. The change to remove `clip` in the screen reader text styles will
 have no visible consequences outside of IE, but failing to remove `clip`
 from an associated `:focus` style would result in a focused block of
 screen reader text not becoming visible.

 To test:

  - Activate each default theme. Tab from the address bar into the theme.
 Does the skip link become visible when focused?
  - Test the core skip links for jumping to the toolbar and to the admin
 content.
