[GSoC - OMP/ACC] Question on regression tests

Hi,

Sorry for the delay in sharing details about bug 93226. I have been 
spending time testing different things related to debugging and reading 
through the source code to (honestly) understand the fix, while the fix 
itself is straightforward, tracing the root cause involves following a 
fairly complete path through the compilation and execution flow.

I left a detailed comment on Bugzilla explaining my reasoning for why 
the fix works and why I believe no additional tests are needed. I may 
have over-explained a bit, but I wanted the record to be clear and also 
to check if my understanding is accurate.

My question is about regression testing. I would like to run the 
regression tests following the process described in the GCC newbies 
guide 
(https://gcc-newbies-guide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/readying-a-patch.html#regression-testing-bootstrap-regstrapping), 
but I am a bit unsure about which branch to target. Since the bug is in 
OG15 (i.e., devel/omp/gcc-15, if I am understanding correctly), should I 
run the regression tests against that branch, or against trunk/master?

Thank you for your time and patience.

Best regards,
Sebastian
