I think we should definitely be able to check the test output against a reference version.
The idea is that there is no test output (except for debugging); everything is checked right inside the test.
Why can't you have one executable per test? Or is there some test/check confusion here? One check per executable, or perl file for that matter would be crazy.
Because a Winelib executable is too heavyweight; you need a spec file, multiple object files, a lot of disk space, etc. You cannot realistically have hundreds of them without creating a horrible mess.
