Patch for reftex.el: master or release branch?

[Arash Esbati]

Dear maintainers,

I have the following patch for reftex.el fixing AUCTeX bug#59638.  This
issue was introduced with commit 1e8bb313ea:

            (label-re (concat "\\(?:"
                             (mapconcat #'identity reftex-label-regexps "\\|")
                             "\\)"))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Can you please tell me if this should go to master or emacs-29 branch?

TIA.  Best, Arash
