Yes, I noticed that the platform specific stuff doesn't get covered, of
course. It's very easy to do, *if* there's any way to get the coverage
database from a central location (or send it back to a central location).
It might be interesting to run coverage analysis -- either figleaf or
Ned Batchelder's module[0] -- once a week on select buildbot machines
(one linux, one windows, one mac, or some such) and make the coverage
databases available via something like a downloadable static file. Then
anyone could download those files and do Interesting Things with them.

[0] I'm sorry, I don't know how Walter Dorwald generates his coverage;
if it's OSS, then it'd be better to use because it shows C code coverage
as well.
p.s. Here's the diff for regr_test:
