Preparation
The regression test is invoked thru by the 'make' command which compiles
- a 'c' program with Postgres95 extension functions into a shared library
+ a 'c' program with PostgreSQL extension functions into a shared library
in the current directory. Localized shell scripts are also created in
the current directory. The 'expected.input' file is massaged into the
'expected.out' file. The localization replaces macros in the source
OID differences

If you run the regression test on a non-virgin database or run it multiple
times, the OID's reported will have different values.
