So spending a few minutes to look at my data, it is not quite that easy if
we want to look at contrib checks for example. Both btree_gin and
btree_gist have checks called "int4" for example, and the aforementioned
regexp won't pick that up. But that's surely a fixable problem.

And perhaps we should at least start off data for just "make check" to see
if it's useful, before spending too much work?
