What code you mean? If you mean the patch he post, the patch is obviously wrong and not pass even simplest tests. It reminds my very early attempts. > As present the GNU sort we have doesn't seem to be able to handle multibyte > and/or shift states, does it?

Yes, both variants (i.e. NetBSD sort too, if it will be fixed) limited to 8bit, as 99% of other base-localized soft. Multibyte l10n is completely different thing. What his work you mean? I answer him, read this discussion to the end. He admit that his change is wrong. -- Andrey A.
