Sure, I'll explain.

I mean cleanly.

As I understand 'git revert' fails because of test changes. You need to revert
only pi.c changes, for this case it's ok to revert all pi.c changes starting
mentioned commit. To do that you can do:

'git diff 710b643b2ffe56f1ab754d030cbc651220919bfa^ dlls/msxml3/pi.c | patch
-p1 -R'

This will leave uncommitted changes in your tree unlike 'git revert', to easily
clean up after you're done with reproducing crash do:

'git diff | patch -p1 -R'

this will revert reverted changes and make 'git diff' output empty.
