This is correct. It is called the "GCC Regression Test Suite", because
that is what it tests for: regressions.

At some point, once everything is working, and the tests are fixed for
the AVR, perhaps we can start *adding* tests to the GCC test suite for
issues specific to the AVR. ;-)

BTW, Paulo, great work! :-) I'm looking forward to trying everything
out.
