For the MRU, the conditions are:

- upstream supports micro-version updates to stable releases

Yes.  Upstream policy for stable commits is
http://libguestfs.org/guestfs.3.html#libguestfs-version-numbers

- upstream has a sufficiently high level of regression testing for their
stable releases

Yes.  The 'make check-release' rule is run on every release (development
and stable releases), and it includes a very large test suite run under
a variety of conditions and on multiple architectures.

- regression tests are always run on the update before it is released
(e.g. by being enabled in the package's build)

No - the Ubuntu package does not run the full test suite, although it
could and probably should do.
