This shows how #ReactOS needs more support than ever. Building a Windows-compatible OS isn't an easy task, and this is just one further proof.

Yes, but not proof of copied code. That's just FUD of somebody who "glanced at the ReactOS code tree".
As @Conan_Kudo put it:
"ReactOS has already gone through a full audit. There was nothing to substantiate those claims. As it turns out, if you're doing reverse engineering properly, you usually wind up implementing similar code, because you're re-implementing behavior."

Yes, I know their code is fully clean and honest, which makes these claims nothing more than words.
Yet Microsoft (who "loves open source") has a wide team of lawyers who might not put ReactOS devs in a position of full equality.
