bug#6296: sort -c not using proper keyspec |

CoreUtils,
I believe sort(1) is not honoring the keyspec I provide in the case of a '-c'
run. Here's a small file and the behavior I'm seeing.
I realize sort keyspecs can be tricky -- I hope this is not a case of user
error!
Thanks,
Jim

$ awk '{print $1,$2}' x.scan.txt|sort -c -k1,1n -k2,2n
$ sort -c -k1,1n -k2,2n x.scan.txt
