--- Comment #6 from François Gouget <fgouget at codeweavers.com> ---
This also partially breaks the TestBot: when one manually submits a job to run
in the 64-bit Wine, the TestBot chdirs() to c:\ where the test executable is
and then runs ".../wine TestLauncher64.exe foo_test.exe xxx". But wine resets
the current directory to / before hitting TestLauncher's main() which then
cannot do its executable dependency checks.

Interestingly this is specific to the 32-bit -> 64-bit cross-calls:
wine foo32.exe -> current directory is preserved
wine foo64.exe -> current directory is reset to /
wine64 foo64.exe -> current directory is preserved

This is also why the pure 32-bit and 32-bit WoW tests still run fine.
The patches submitted to wine-devel also work but for a different reason:
instead of TestLauncher those go through winetest.exe in a way that does not
depend on the current directory.
