And a new test which fails may or may not be a regression - finding out 
whether it is requires either testing the old compiler with the new 
testsuite (e.g. using contrib/test_installed, but that doesn't do 
libstdc++ testing), or running the tests manually with the old compiler.  
(Whether or not it is a regression, it is still worth a bug report in 
Bugzilla, as is any FAIL or XFAIL.)
