I would  be inclined to assume that there are Unicode 1.1 apps loitering about.

Strange question!  Unicode 5.2 was released in 2009.  Consequently, on the 
Ubuntu release I'm running all characters new in Unicode 5.2 are compared equal 
(and that nearly bit me - fortunately, the C locale was good enough for my 
purpose.). The MS Office I have at home on my Windows 7 machine is Office XP 
(i.e. 2002), and at work we use MS Office 2007 on Windows XP. I supposed it's 
possible that these versions have been upgraded to a more recent version of 
Unicode, but I suspect it's unlikely. 

Richard.
