It does actually fail. In fact, from the mountains of diff output it 
looks like 'sort' *may* be completely failing to output anything, or at 
least failing to output large chunks of what it is supposed to. I can 
re-run with VERBOSE, but it's going to be a *big* log, should I bz2 it 
and post that?
