I'm not sure what you mean by [...].  The %lu?
Are you proposing to just add the word "sort"?  That's not needed IMHO.

I was suggesting exactly that :)
Also, the word "key" appears in few other messages, the attached patch adds 
"sort" to them all. This is of course just a suggestion, and we can use another syntax 
like the one you listed.

Attached are 3 patches, not finalized but good as a starting point for comments.

1. rephrase "key" with "sort key". Perhaps this is superfluous - thoughts ?

2. add a bit more verbose progress information to the 'sort-debug-warn.sh' test 
- just so it'll be easier to discuss to the changed messages.

3. removes the 'maybe_space_aligned' and modifies the condition a bit.

I'm 50:50 on 1.
2 and 3 are good to push.

thanks!
