I grabbed the latest glibc from the Red Hat 7.0 updates.  (Upgrading
was fairly smooth, since they both use glibc-2.1.xx.)  It didn't change
the sort order.

I've found out why 'en' and 'en_US' behave differently - there is no
locale called 'en' included with glibc.  It's created by a package for
kpilot.  Similarly the 'en_UK' locale is created by KDE.

I'm using glibc-2.1.3-21.  Do you have LC_COLLATE set?
