Not sure if this is a bug or a problem with the way my environment it setup - 
or the way I'm using sort 
- But...
Given the following data in a file, the sort command does not produce the 
correct output.
I have even tried setting the LC_ALL as suggested in the sort --help  (set 
LC_ALL=C)

AG        1
AG2       3
AG2       2
AG3       4
AG        4
AG3       3
AG4       5
AG4       6

The results are

AG        1
AG2       2
AG2       3
AG3       3
AG3       4
AG        4
AG4       5
AG4       6


I would expect the output to be more like ...

AG        1
AG        4
AG2       2
AG2       3
AG3       3
AG3       4
AG4       5
AG4       6

Any suggestions would be appreciated.


Thanks,
