Except that the tests clutter up the reports. We should have at least one
dedicated, declared sane, Windows installation that we regard as most
important. When you _start_ expecting tests to fail  is when you
_stop_ paying attention to tests.

(That Codeweavers do not have such an installation yet, is beoynd me. Or
if you do, please make it automatically submit its findings to
test.winehq.org!)

Cleaning up these tests to not expect the wrong thing should lead to
a deeper understanding of desired behaviour of Wine.
