Doug, I'll post some performance figures, probably tomorrow.
That's great, thanks.
But I do not agree with you that we have to reproduce the old sort
bugs.
It makes no sense and I am not going to do that. Absolutely not.
That isn't what I said. What I asked is for you to *test* the
existing
sort vs. the new one, and to report where the behavior is different.
That's a very basic part of any sort of "replace a core utility"
project
such as this one.

Doug, are you implying that if we were about to import a new version of
GNU sort, you would be asking for the same data? I believe we do not
make this kind of work with any vendor code that is being updated in the
base; I do not really understand why should Oleg or anyone else do this
work when the bsdsort is compatible with a recent version of GNU sort.
