But that doesn't say whether multiple CHECK-SAME directives each start
looking at the beginning of the line or whether they continue form where
the previous CHECK-SAME left off.  To me it makes the most sense if each
CHECK-SAME starts from the beginning of the line and it would also seem
to be much simpler to implement it that way.  If it indeed works that
way, then CHECK-SAME can be used to check things disregarding order
within the line.
