Note, that, it is not only difference in >0x7f "nls" chars (somewhat
"expected"), there are difference in ascii range too (see that test from
test/locale.c). [I'm saying about difference between wine vs. windows; I'm not
sure if windows lstricmpW /really/ work differently in different locales]

I've looked at some .msi files - stream names contain problematic characters:
'.' vs. '_' (mismatches between wine and windows; there are more such chars),
'_' vs. '0' (mismatches between strcasecmp and strcoll|lstricmp).
So, while "problematic" files maybe very rare, but not impossible.
