old is never a good name. Neither is new.
The usual convention is to leave the testsuite as is and not to `reorganize' it. There is little benefit from the reorganization and the benefit of being able to compare and track failures and regressions with stable testcase names is at time useful. Also, using the stable names to be able to compare with llvm-gcc-4.2 is useful. I'd like to see that preserved. Now, if we didn't have any functionality remaining to be merged, and there were 0 testcase failures on all platforms, the benefit of the stable names lessons, but, I don't think we are there yet.
