No. As I said, all the functions that end with an 'A' are supposed to 
return ANSI strings and thus must use CP_ACP. Remember that Wine is a 
Win32 API reimplementation so there are a lot of these Ansi functions.

Now the places where we actually have to deal with CP_UNIXCP are pretty 
rare. You'll have to dig deeper to find exactly why the wrong encoding 
is used in the winmm test. Maybe it is as simple as passing Ansi strings 
straight to the native printf implementation?
