Yes, it seems so. At least on all my eCS systems it works like a charm (I specifically tested it on directories containing variously named files in both English and Russian, upper/lower case and so on).
A possible way to fix this would be to provide a complete 3rd party Unicode replacement (e.g iconv or whatever) but I don't feel that it's worth doing taking into account that in modern fixpacks the native Unicode support works well. So I'm wontfixing this. The one that disagrees will reopen.
Did some investigation on that one: It looks like buggy / outdated (pre fixpack 16) unicode support in OS/2 will cause QString::localeAwareCompare() to return bogus results. I leave the ticket open for now, but this is certainly a candidate for "wontfix".
