I had a similar experience lately; I got surprised because sort and strcmp
did not agree on the order of things.  In my case, my locale was set to
en_US by gnome (I think).  Setting LC_ALL=C (instead of en_US) and then
doing sort makes sort use strcmp to pick the sorting order, which may
solve your problem.
