I think we can categorise the re-testing and regression testing as follows....
Regression testing is nothing but Sanity testing-- A set of basic test cases (to ensure

that basic functionalities working..) which will be executing in each and every patch

release, after some bug fixes.
re-testing -- may be the testing of a particular bug again (this may not be part of

regression test cases)to confirm it is working..may be after somebody say it is not working

in our setup....
Dont know whether it is right...this is my thinking...

Repeating testing on the same build is called Retesting.
 
Repeating testing on the Modified build is called Regrression testing.
