I would be happy to do it. Unfortunely, I cannot imagine how to 
implement such test:
1) DOS code needed - it would need binary or some sort of source to be 
compiled prior to test or some temporary file with a binary
2) method to catch failure inside of ntdll
3) maybe something else...
It is just not seems to be possible to do all this inside of some .c file.

Hmm, is there any test for kernel or winedos at all?
