Certainly there is a problem in your 'sort' installation. Perhaps it depends on the locale? Try setting LC_ALL=C in your environment.I seem to have detected a bug in sort. Can you confirm?
I cannot reproduce the problem with coreutils 8.4 built on Fedora 23 x86-64, nor on Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS x86 (this is the oldest Ubuntu release that is still supported). Please try building coreutils 8.4 on your platform, from source, and using that.
