I can confirm that MS.NET indeed does behave as described by Nicklas.

string str1 = "abc\0";
string str2 = "abc";
Console.WriteLine(str1.Length);
Console.WriteLine(str2.Length);
Console.WriteLine(string.Compare(str1, str2,
StringComparison.InvariantCulture));
Console.WriteLine(string.Compare(str1, str2,
StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase));
Console.WriteLine(string.Compare(str1, str2, StringComparison.Ordinal));
Console.WriteLine(string.Compare(str1, str2,
StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase));


Output on .NET Framework 4.0:
4
3
0
0
1
1

This bug is definitely not fixed if you really want to close it, won't fix is a
better choice although I belive that this would affect compatibility with
MS.NET and don't support closing it as won't fix.
