Re: [Iverilog-devel] Subdividing the ivtest compiler regression test lists

[Martin W. <mai...@ma...>]

One enthusiastic yes, and no dissenting voices, so I've switched everything 
over. Shout if anything seems broken.

I've preserved the v0.8 exceptions (in regress-v0.8.list) in case anyone wants 
to resurrect them. Given that we haven't touched v0.8 in a long time, it 
doesn't seem worth expending much effort on this.
