This is not a regression in any stable releases, failing tests is not a
problem at all. As release and SRU processes only consider regressions
(previously passed, now failing). Things that have always failed are
treated as such by proposed-updates and the rest of the tooling ("always
failed"). This is exactly the same as FTBFS - only regressions count,
and we have many packages that have never built on certain arches.

SRU policy, Section 2 "When", has three major categories listing in
bullet points cases that are eligible for SRU.

Which one is this SRU submitted under?
