That depends. If a package has 3 open RC bugs, one tagged sid and two present in woody, then a package that fixes the other two RC bugs will pass through the testing scripts because the new package has fewer RCs than the old package. But then, if the package in testing has 2 open RC bugs, then something needs to be done to get them fixed in any case. Steve Langasek postmodern programmer
