Well I have checked and on a clean Wine install from current git there
is no service installed at all. I see a VxD/MSTCP entry in the registry
but no other settings in there that would be needed for a service to be
started nor any other service entry. On that account I wonder what the
VxD/MSTCP entry does at all or if it could be removed?

Without at least one working service entry (active or not) there won't
be many meaningful tests we could do for the service API.

I thought skip would be the solution but need to read on that. Last time I
did a Wine test skip didn't exist at all.

Still on a clean Wine install I don't see how we can currently do many
useful service API tests at all.
