Hi Alexander,
Your return value is strange. I tried it on my machine and I get:
>> list: [
[ [%readme.txt 4-Sep-1998/5:37:08+1:00 139 file "^/"]
[ [%user.r 26-Nov-1999/17:08:58+1:00 330 file "^/"]
[ ]
== [[%readme.txt 4-Sep-1998/5:37:08+1:00 139 file "^/"] [%user.r
26-Nov-1999/17:08:58+1:00 330 fil
e "^/"]
]
>> sort/compare list func [a b] [lesser? (second a) (second b)]
== [[%readme.txt 4-Sep-1998/5:37:08+1:00 139 file "^/"] [%user.r
26-Nov-1999/17:08:58+1:00 330 fil
e "^/"]
]

Appears to work here.
