I'm not sure what "count" means in that context. It's real software you can run, and it's really running on OS X and Linux. So it does what it advertises.
But yes: this is basically advertisement. Google released a big piece of notable windows software with an open source license, and Codeweavers took the opportunity to show how you could get that source base running on other platforms in a matter of days using their product.
I'm not rushing off to download it, but still: this is a good hack, and a great piece of marketing IMHO.
It's free as in beer, and it works well enough for me to make this comment with it right now. So it kinda counts!
That said, there seem to be several issues with fonts not FITTING _
um< i guess i am being shown up _ literally as i type this it seems to have convinced my macbook that shift is being constantly held down. and it breaks with expose. beware!

Except for people with PowerPC OSX systems.
