Are the upstream differences between 15.0.6 and 15.0.7 that big?

I think for rocm-hipamd, the main issue is that 5.2.3-5 depends on
libclang-rt-15-dev, which was introduced to unstable by means of a
package split in 1:15.0.7-1.

I'm pretty sure rocm-hipamd could live with the version in bookworm, but
it would need a new upload to change the dependency to reflect the
pre-split view.

In fact, we almost went so far as to implement just that, but we let it
as-is after all, because we assumed that #1029010 would be resolved in
due time, one way or another.

Best,
Christian
