This needs an investigation: if an application checks the DLL version what does it do then? Perhaps it depends on some specific behaviour? Does the application work under XP?
My hunch is this particular application isn't checking at all. Whatever that's worth.
I did fire up an XP SP3 vm and it does work. I think though that's already using version 6. I found a page detailing comctl32 versions and if I'm reading it right any version of XP has v6 available.
I could try something older assuming I still have any. Or if there's some way to force v5. Don't know.
