dlls/oleaut32/tests/vartype.c around line 4514 has the following comment:

    /* MSDN states that rounding of R4/R8 is dependent on the underlying
     * bit pattern of the number and so is architecture dependent. In this
     * case Wine returns .2 (which is more correct) and Native returns .3
     */

So, I'd suggest just surround your test by todo_wine and add a comment
explaining the situation.
