Ok, I should have said, that SIS is an accurate simulator ;-)

The spintrcritical*.exe tests are a problem in general on Qemu due to 
the translation block granularity of the execution.  I helps to use the 
-icount option, but the results are still not that good.  My experience 
is that for everything which is timing dependent Qemu is a bad choice.  
Maybe we should use different simulators for different tests.
