I got this bug report for coreutils 8.14:

----------------------------------------------------

export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
{ echo 16301 3.574885; echo 163 0.171036; } | sort

Produces

16301 3.574885
163 0.171036


which is incorrect.  The lines should be in the other order

With "LANG=C" it works correctly.

----------------------------------------------------

Is this really a bug or is this because of differing collating rules?

Philipp
