The value of running tests on Win9x these days is certainly questionable. We don't try to emulate the Win9x behavior anyway, except in a very few cases (which most likely don't have tests...) so it only serves to document historical behavior that nobody cares about any longer.
I wouldn't be opposed to switching off win9x test runs and getting rid of the corresponding broken().
So the first thing is a patch to winetest.exe and the winetest website and at the same time tell Greg to exclude it from 'patchwatcher' and the batch running of the (almost) daily winetests.
I'll mark the Win9x VMs offline when there's nothing queued to run on them. Then in a weeks time I can delete them after all jobs referring to them have been retired/deleted (referential integrity in the database). So for the next week you'll see a red dot with "One or more VMs are offline" on the testbot main page, don't be alarmed by this.
