In principle, shouldn't one use the _same_ testsuite for both versions?
I.e., for these regression tests, shouldn't egcs-1.0.3a be tested with
the suite from egcs-1.1-tree as well (to see how egcs-1.1 has improved)
or egcs-1.1-tree tested with the suite from egcs-1.0.3a (to check that
there indeed no regressions in case the suite has changed)?
I understood http://egcs.cygnus.com/regress.html to mean the former...
