I can only assume that you are intentionally misspelling "regression" as
"regresion" (with only one "s") as part of the test. I have not checked if
that worked before v14, but if it ignored the misspelled database name before
v14, and it rejects it now, I'm not sure that counts as a bug.
Am I misunderstanding your bug report?
