What I am interested in seeing are the test results for both the wave and
dsound tests on both windows and wine.  These tests are highly
hardware and os dependent and it's impossible to duplicate all the
possible combinations.  The fact that these tests work fine on windows
and my system doesn't help the people that are complaining of
problems on their systems.  Why should winetest be restricted to
windows only?
