I can now confirm that the regtest comparison is done on the files in
input/regression/out-test/ , which are created via "make test".

If the files in those directories had names corresponding to their
actual regtest file names, then the regtest comparisons would be more
robust against changing lilypond-book options.  I'm not certain
whether this would be best achieved by adding a special option to
lilypond-book (--use-original-filename ?), or by renaming the files in
this directory after being created, or whatever.
