Interestingly, it works here with the string you used, and fails in the
following case:
~ $ for LANG in $(locale -a); do printf "A b\nAA b\nAAA b\n" | sort
-h|tr -d '\n'; echo; done | uniq -c
1 A bAA bAAA b
21 AAA bAA bA b
1 A bAA bAAA b
2 AAA bAA bA b

I will add the printf you asked, and run it again.
A similar issue has also been reported on Ubuntu
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/422252), but for coreutils 6.10.
