get LCID from string

How to get LCID from string like "en-US"?

I know about GetLocaleInfoEx function, but it doesn't work on windows XP.

Can I get LCID from CRT locale?

UPD: Can I convert between LCID and CRT locale (created by _create_locale function)? CRT locale may be created by _create_locale and string - Locale name.

    Seems to go back as far as IE 4.0, so you should be OK on XP.
