'make test' is intended to run and pass in all cases, but there are cases
when a test fails. In that case the first thing to do is investigate *why*
the test fails, and only when there is a good understanding what's the source
of the misbehaviour try to fix it.

user32 message were passing for me completely without single failure until
recent WM related changes. That doesn't mean that changes are incorrect,
that simply discovers bugs and inconsistent behaviour in WMs out there.
