You got me wrong :)
It's the sequence in Glossary that got shuffled. What is the most logical
sequence there. Alphabetic-lexicographic.
the 'sed....|sort >>xx[15];diff ...' showed that I was aware of the
shuffleness in Configure. Otherwise a plain diff would have been far
more informative
All applied. Re-rsynced and re-build all. make test still OK.
Pheeiw. Phase one completed successfully. Up to the next level.
