However, when the second word doesn't have "ss" in corresponding position,

Markus's case (which I'm guessing is German), 'ß'>  's'.

I tried both en_US and de_AT. Both yield the same result for me under 10.7.3.

I think the whole thing must have to do with the fact that ß doesn't have an upper-case version and the compare is case insensitive. I vaguely remember being hit by the same thing once, though I can't remember when it was and I'm pretty sure a system update fixed it. It must have been in the early 10.5 or 10.6 releases.
