Thanks.  I should have been clearer that I was asking about /all/
regressions in testing, rather than just autopkgtests.

I meant that if preventing a test suite failure in testing took
priority, we would want to stop ghostscript from migrating.  Anyway,
it's moot.

Right.

I don't know if OCRmyPDF in testing counts as RC-buggy right now,
because I don't know the ramifications of the GhostScript changes; I'm
going to wait on upstream.
