Karmic reached end of life some time ago, are you able to reproduce this
on 12.04+?

Title:
  karmic beta installer does not suggest importing profiles form xp on a
  win7/xp machine

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  while installing 9.10 beta on a machine containing windows xp and
  windows 7, the installer only offers to import user profiles from the
  windows 7 installation - the wizard does not display any profiles from
  the xp installation.

  the machine in question has windows xp and 7 installed, with 7 being
  installed after xp, so the boot loader in question is the windows 7
  boot loader (which successfully boots both 7 and xp).

  im not sure whether this is a bug or a feature request - its possible
  the install script were never meant to parse windows 7 multiboot
  records in order to detect the presence of additional windows installs
