Just a shot in the dark: perhaps the flag is supposed to force CompareString
to make character reordering first (taking into account bidirectional layout)
and only then do an actual string comparison? Perhaps adding GetCharacterPlacement
with GCP_REORDER flag set and comparing the results would tell more.
