I noticed this while writing tests for sort.el
With the following buffer contents (the text between the dashes,
including a final newline), issue `C-x h M-x sort-numeric-fields'.
You'll get the error that the last line doesn't have enough fields. I
think that error should not be thrown because of a final newline.
---------------------
1 hi
2 bye

Meanwhile take the following buffer contents,
--------------------
paragraph 2
paragraph 1
--------------------
If you issue `sort-paragraphs' on the whole buffer, you'll get this:
--------------------
paragraph 1
paragraph 2
-------------------
In my opinion both behavior are bugs. But surely one of them is, as
the functions should be somewhat consistent on demanding final
newlines.
