Dunno, some people tend to backport testsuite infrastructure improvements,
but one still has to test stuff on the release branches anyway, so adjusting
to older infrastructure isn't that hard either.
So, I'd leave such a decision to the testsuite maintainers if somebody is
willing to test the backport of the patch.
