Bugreport 'sort'

Hi,

I want to report a bug in "sort" utility.

When using the sort utility to sort the following text:
> 10D010074019D0050005 RW  16  46.4 25 1 HR _ L S 1 R- L
> 10D010074019D0050009 RW  16  46.4 25 1 HR _ L S 2 R- L
< 10D010074C5A20200007 RW  16  46.7 90 0 VW e N S 1 R- R
< 10D010074C5A2020000B RW  16  46.7 90 0 VW e N S 2 R- R
< 10D010074C5AD0070007 RW  16  46.7 90 1 HR _ R S 1 R- R
< 10D010074C5AD007000B RW  16  46.7 90 1 HR _ R S 2 R- R
< 10D010074C5AD007000F RW  16  46.7 90 1 HR _ R S 3 R- R
< 10D01007942D00200007 RW  16  48.5 45 0 VW a N S 1 R- R
> 10D01007A050D0070007 RW  16  48.8 80 1 HR _ R S 1 R- R
> 10D01007A050D007000B RW  16  48.8 80 1 HR _ R S 2 R- R
< 10D01007B00018200005 RW  16  49.2  0 0 VW d N S 1 R- L
< 10D01007B050D005000D RW  16  49.2 80 1 HR _ L S 3 R- L

I would assume the lines with ">" and "<" would be grouped together, but I 
still get:
> 10D010074019D0050005 RW  16  46.4 25 1 HR _ L S 1 R- L
> 10D010074019D0050009 RW  16  46.4 25 1 HR _ L S 2 R- L
< 10D010074C5A20200007 RW  16  46.7 90 0 VW e N S 1 R- R
< 10D010074C5A2020000B RW  16  46.7 90 0 VW e N S 2 R- R
< 10D010074C5AD0070007 RW  16  46.7 90 1 HR _ R S 1 R- R
< 10D010074C5AD007000B RW  16  46.7 90 1 HR _ R S 2 R- R
< 10D010074C5AD007000F RW  16  46.7 90 1 HR _ R S 3 R- R
< 10D01007942D00200007 RW  16  48.5 45 0 VW a N S 1 R- R
> 10D01007A050D0070007 RW  16  48.8 80 1 HR _ R S 1 R- R
> 10D01007A050D007000B RW  16  48.8 80 1 HR _ R S 2 R- R
< 10D01007B00018200005 RW  16  49.2  0 0 VW d N S 1 R- L
< 10D01007B050D005000D RW  16  49.2 80 1 HR _ L S 3 R- L

Apparently the comparing ">" and "<" doesn't work well (or do ">" and "<" have 
special meaning?)
