I have tried it on Win98, WinME, Win2000, WinXP, and Windows Server 2003. LCMapStringA/CompareStringA on all five and LCMapStringW/CompareStringW on the NT-ish platforms.
I do not and cannot repro the reported problem of your colleague. Please have that colleague send me some email with their repro scenario, if they have one (I don't think they do, as the code on the NT platforms does not have this functionality, even as an option).
