Testing the operation of CreateFile
> However, that patch was not accepted, i don't remember exactly why.

Probably because CreateFile performs exactly the same under Wine as on Windows.
The attached test sequence is a rather extensive test of opening the same file
twice with different permissions. Success/Failure was established by running
the test cases on Windows XP and this matches exactly with the results on
Linux.  I think a more exhaustive version of your profile test should be made
and the same method should be applied in order to make sure everything works
properly in all cases (by making your test more exhaustive it should be
possible to deduce the permissions requested by WritePrivateProfileString).
