presented in correct order. In ASCII, that would be:
$ ls -1
20-name-change+my.21-compile-fixes.dpatch

20-name-change=my.21-compile-fixes.patch
[email protected]
20-name-change~my.21-compile-fixes.patch
SUGGESTION
The LC_* variables seem to affect the listing order, but this is not
mentioned in the manual page. Please add following paragraph, as seen in
sort(1), to read:
*** WARNING *** The locale specified by the environment affects
sort order. Set LC_ALL=C to get the traditional sort order that
uses native byte values.
