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.. > btw, this happens on other UNIX OS too, lol... why do we have the sort > command if it doesn't work? Normally it does work.
