What about adding the hint to that message that this an "ambiguity warning"? sort: ambiguity warning: numbers use ‘.’ as a decimal point in this locale (Likewise for the other cases, of course.) Most other --debug messages usually state how sort processes the options / the input, while this one tells why the processing potentially does not work as the user expected. +1 otherwise.
