When hack^H^H^H^Hcrafting tests for GCC, it was very useful to have DejaGNU run
only my new test, without the rest of the testsuite (large and slow).  While
the LLVM DejaGNU testsuite is currently smaller than GCCs, it's now big enough
to be a burden when writing new tests.  And we should make it easy to write and
debug new tests.  :-)

In the GCC tree, one could say

   % make check RUNTESTFLAGS="something.exp=my-new-test-2.c"

and DejaGNU would run only the test named "my-new-test-2.c".  I don't know why
the LLVM analogue doesn't work for me.
