I believe there's a bug in the sort command in version 4.5.3. I'm trying to sort a list by month:
echo "jan feb mar apr may jun" | sort -M and it returns the list in alphabetical order, not by month. I've tried both the -M and the --month-sort options. This is /bin/sort on a new RedHat 9.0 install. The --version command says I'm running sort (coreutils) 4.5.3. I have an older linux box with version sort (textutils) 2.0.21 which works and sorts months properly. If I'm way off on this and it's not a bug but just something dumb I'm doing, please let me know.
