Well, nikk is very clear: 残念に思っている様子を態
度に表わす。 残念そうにする。
and this is how the -がる suffix is used. 
Again, mk's def: …という気持ちや様子を外に見せる意を
表す。
GG5's definition is maybe OK in the context of 
it being a wa-ei dictionary for Japanese 
speakers who won't have to have it explained 
that a -がる verb will (in the absolute 
majority of cases) not be used when the 
subject is oneself. I think we need to spell 
it out, though.

  Comments:
As with 欲しがる the JEs are not featuring the appear/seem aspect. I think it's really a more direct adjectival derivation from 残念.
