Sielle: Probably not cost effective to make sure the demo runs the same as the full game. If GOG provides the demo it has to be a demo of their version... if you find it somewhere else there's not the same expectation of the stability on modern OS's.
In other words I hope they never provide demos as that time could be better spent on actual releases.

This is exactly why we don't do demo versions. We love the idea but the reality kills the concept. Demos tend to be made on versions of the games that are not patched and this makes it impossible to do compatibility correctly or fully - we don't like half-hearted solutions..
