Some of the modules which had a larger # of untested functions include: ... Objects/weakrefobject.c

I'd guess that a lot of untested functions here are the slot wrappers, which are macro generated and all boilerplate, except for a couple. I'd be interested in seeing the list to see if my intuition is right though; if wrong, it's time to add some tests. And it probably wouldn't hurt to add tests for the boilerplate stuff anyway, just to be extra careful about understanding expectations and protecting against regression failures.
