Most likely, it is neither a bug nor an unintended feature, but a
documented feature of locale specifications.

collation sequence is chosen by y

We came across something that appears to be a bug as opposed to an
unintended design feature.
If you consider the following source file (named sort.txt in my
example):
M=L
MIK
M-
M-K
M=
MIK
M-A
miw...@avalanche:/home/miwarn> sort sort.txt
M=
M-
M-A
MIK
MIK
M-K

miw..
I should have included some information about the system that we are
using:

And perhaps mention less painful
tr -s \ \\t | cut -f5
and perl -anwle 'print $F[4]'
if the user's input permits such simplification...

If you want that, use perl -a. Also use perl's split if you want

The result depends on your system's local timezone, which I assume is

Hi, Dear Sir,
I use the command: date +%Y%m%d%H -d "1990-04-13 12 36 hours"
But I get the result: 1990041501 ! The correct one should be 1990041500.
date +%Y%m%d%H -d "1990-04-13 12 118799 seconds"
the result is: 1990041500.
But,
date +%Y%m%d%H -d "1990-04-13 12 118800 seconds"
the result is: 1
