Of course the tests are suppose to show the behaviour of Windows.

And another rule is that the patch which changes the behaviour of an API
needs to have an appropriate test case which does not pass before the patch
(i.e. has the todo_wine around it), and passes after the patch (i.e. the patch
removes the corresponding todo_wine). Your patch doesn't qualify for that.
