Public bug reported:

This is best shown by example. So, we have a file:

$ cat test.txt
cgi.load
cgid.load
a
ab

With no LANG set, we get the sort ordering when we expect:

$ LANG='' sort < test.txt
a
ab
cgi.load
cgid.load

With the LANG set to any en_ locale, the ordering is wrong:

$ LANG='en_GB.UTF-8' sort < test.txt
a
ab
cgid.load
cgi.load

$ LANG='en_US.UTF-8' sort < test.txt
a
ab
cgid.load
cgi.load

In these locales, cgi.load should still sort before cgid.load.
