Run Regression Tests

The SCons Build``Bot will usually be monitoring this branch, so all you have to do is wait until the BuildBot display for the commit from the previous step shows that all the regression tests have been run. On the other hand, if you're feeling bored, you can run the regression tests while you're waiting... ;-)
