It shouldn't be, since we can (and do) have multiple regression test
sets. If there are tests that take too long for normal use, let's make a
"takes a long time" set and a new Makefile target for it - we'll add it
to the buildfarm suite so automated testing (which shouldn't care how
long it takes) will do the heavy work for us.
