The test being removed is correct and valid. Removing it could lead to
a regression in Wine as this case is not being covered when this patch
is applied.
While a 100% pass rate is ideal, on Windows 2003 SP1 that test *is*
failing due to a bug. However, this is the correct behaviour, and the
bug is detected by this test.
