it seems sort is suffering from some subtle bug. does this happen for
anyone else? is it just my machine, is it a redhat problem, or is it
actually a gnu bug?
for example, en_IN repeatably produces proper results, but en_AU
repeatably fails to handle some special characters properly. but both
of these locales use the same stock definitions:
LC_CTYPE
copy "i18n"
END LC_CTYPE
LC_COLLATE
copy "iso14651_t1"
END LC_COLLATE
en_IN producing correct results:
$ LC_CTYPE=en_IN LC_COLLATE=en_IN sort /tmp/sos
groan
grosr
groß
grost
red
résumé
resumed
en_AU producing incorrect results:
$ LC_CTYPE=en_AU LC_COLLATE=en_AU sort /tmp/sos
groß
groan
grosr
grost
résumé
red
resumed
(glibc-common-2.3.2-27.9, coreutils-4.5.3-19)
