Thanks, Eric and Eli.  We will do that, and will add some tests to
include with our submission.

We are also in the process of getting our simulator and C library (both
proprietary) released under a new license so that folks can download
them and actually run programs.  That's a couple of months away, though,
and doesn't really help much for creating LLVM regression tests.  Still,
it will make reproducing problems easier. :)
