I think I figured out what went wrong.
regression.diffs is created by compareing src/test/regress/expect/name.out with
src/test/regress/results/name.out.
Since expected/name.out comes with the jar, so any changes I made won't be
reflected in the that file.
Now the question is, is there a way to update the expected/*out files ??
thanks,
kathy
