There is a certain prevention already that later maintenance fixes don't break the earlier ones: those fixes typically get checked into the trunk also, where the tests do exist. So the committer would find out even before the patch gets to the maintenance branch.
By this logic, the maintenance branch would need no tests at all, because they are all in trunk already! -Andrew.
