Save yourself some embarrassment and run your patched code
against more than just your current test example. Experience
will tell you how much effort to apply here. If there are
any conformance tests for the code you're working on, run them
and make sure they still pass after your patch is applied. Running
tests can be done by running <command>make test</command>. You may
need to run <command>make testclean</command> to undo the results
of a previous test run. See the <quote>testing</quote> guide for
more details on Wine's conformance tests.

Please consider submitting a conformance test for your changes.
This will make it a lot clearer for everyone that your patch is
needed, and it will prevent future breakage. While you are not
strictly required to submit tests, it is highly encouraged to do so.

conformance tests.
