The test name is just the name of the particular regression test
module. The platform pattern is a pattern in the style of the Unix
module. The output value indicates which output file to check. For the
standard regression tests, this is always <literal>out</literal>. The
value corresponds to the file extension of the output file.
The platform pattern is a pattern in the style of the Unix
tool <command>expr</> (that is, a regular expression with an implicit
<literal>^</literal> anchor at the start). It is matched against the
platform name as printed by <command>config.guess</command>.
