(month) key. The syntax I described before (sort -k 1,1M -k 2,2n -k 3) will be more reliable because it will work regardless of the current locale settings

And, of course, just after I sent that I realized that sorting by month
is inherently locale-dependent (because the month names are localized). So you really need to make sure that the sort locale matches the language of the log files, and if both are C the relevance of which syntax is used is greatly reduced.
