According to the comments in WmfImagePlugin.py:

# notes:
#       This code currently supports placable metafiles only, and
#       just a few graphics operations are implemented.

As far as I know the WMF plugin was never completely implemented. If
you know a lot about WMF you could step up to the plate and make a
working WMF plugin, I'm sure the overly-busy F-bot would appreciate
it.
