Follow-up Comment #9:

I introduced these constructs a long time back before we had amended test.m to
handle bug numbers and a regression indicator.

The point was to have accurate results from the regression test suite.  There
are tests in Octave which pass just fine on Linux, but get different answers
or require overly large tolerances on Mac systems.  This is a problem with Mac
systems and their libraries, not something that needs to be inflicted on other
users.

The solution at the time was to have two BIST test blocks.  One that would run
only on non-mac platforms and would pass and contribute to the number of
successful tests, and a second test for mac platforms which would fail and
contribute to the number of unsuccessful tests.
