There are some known bugs in sort, I ran into a file it couldn't cope with a
couple of years ago too, but it doesn't happen all that often.

I think the consensus was to try and replace it with another version but
not sure what happened.

For your current problem you could pkg_add coreutils and try gsort,
maybe it will cope with your files better..

Normally it does work.
