This part if fine. Now please tell me: why printing result of msvcrt*
tests should depend on the difference of this behaviour? I mean, why do
we need msvcrt functions to print information about the behaviour of
another msvcrt functions? I always used to thought this is extremely
uncorrelated stuff:
1, testing function of the lib;
2, printing results of the test.
Are both thingies hardly tied? Forgive my ignorance, but I am afraid I
won't be able to undrestand this just by digging in the Wine src. Thanks.
