Oh, if the version that was ok is as old as 0.9.15 then it's a trouble indeed.
It's very difficult to compile. Anyway, regression testing with 0.9.15 is
pointless, as we already know what patch changed that, it was the ddraw
rewrite. In the process of that rewrite some features that were considered
hacky and unsafe were killed, unfortunately leading to performance degradation
in some games. Now ddraw is totally different in implementation and wholly
incompatible with that old code.

So it only makes sense to do a regression test if there were recent performance
regressions (recent means something like 0.9.5x or later).
