I've tried running GUIminer on my custom pool that currently sends Getworks with Difficulty>1. Mining on it for a bit, I see GUIminer display notification of "1 accepted shares". Checking that claim against logs from Wireshark and console output of my pool, I can see that no data has been submitted along with the request. Only having mined more shares do valid Getwork results appear to be submitted. I'm guessing GUIminer claims any share with Difficulty 1 it finds to be both valid and automatically accepted by the pool, regardless of it even being sent to the pool for evaluation.
