I would. These days such files are getting more and more common.
But there is a warning in the man page for sort under "BUGS":
"To sort files larger than 60MB, use sort -H; files larger than
704MB must be sorted in smaller pieces, then merged."
So it seams there is a bug in... "files larger than 60MB, use sort -H"
since that did not work for the OP.
