I can't, with Debian stable x86.  I get the order you expect.

   $ /usr/bin/sort test.txt
   a
   á
   aá
   áa
   az
   áz
   azzzzá
   ázzzza
   $ /usr/bin/sort --version | head -n1
   sort (coreutils) 5.2.1
   $ locale
   LANG=POSIX
   LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
   LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
   LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
   LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
   LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
   LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
   LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
   LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
   LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
   LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
   LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
   LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
   LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8

I get the same order with coreutils 6.7 as well.
