I have also ask the question on the WINE-mailinglist.
The answer at
http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2007-August/058929.html
looks like, that the test-suites are not the only reason.

Does it mean ReactOS is not respected/trusted among the Open Source
community for disassembling Microsoft binaries?

I don't know if this accusation is really true or not but if it's not I
think it's even worse because that means that something is failing (probably
communication) between the project and the OS community. Doing nothing about
that is IMHO a very bad idea.

I think it deserves some deep reflection and a *serious* strategy to change
that general opinion. Earn respect is a KEY thing to do if the project wants
to attract new developers.

My two cents,
Marc

I am so sorry you had to go through all that.
This one is my favorite.
