It's 2 different viewports, and constantly changing world and view matrices. 
The projection matrix is the idendity matrix every time.

The view, projection and world matrix for GL drawing are idendity matrices in 
this case, because processed vertices are drawn(they are in viewport 
coordinates). WineD3D does a check if a glOrtho call is necessary.

I don't know much about GL drawing, but I noticed that GL clips primitive 
parts that are outside the Z range. So if vertices that were processed into a 
[0,5.3333] Z range are drawn into a [0,1.0] viewport leads to missing 
vertices. I guess I have to attend a few more courses at univertiy to really 
understand what exactly is going on.

The relevant code is at dlls/wined3d/drawprim.c, line 186, vtx_transformed is 
true, useVS and vtx_lit are false.
