I cannot replicate this. Using the setting above, I called
org-agenda-list-stuck-projects on the following file:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+TODO: TODO PROJECT DELEGATED WAITING | DONE

* PROJECT Testprojekt 						  :inproject:
** DELEGATED a delegated subtask
* PROJECT Another test
** TODO A todo 				
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The agenda yielded the correct results:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
List of stuck projects: 
  test:       PROJECT Testprojekt                                    :inproject:
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Best,
Matt
