bug#9281: Is this expected behavior? |

Hi,
I got a strange ordering when I applied the linux sort command. Please see
below for the details:
address@hidden tmp]$ cat a
.a
ba
.b
bb
.c
bc
address@hidden tmp]$ sort a
.a
.b
ba
bb
bc
.c
NOTE: .a and .b appears before ba and bb, where as .c appears after bc.
In general
if the file has strings of the type .<x> and <y><x>,
then for all x <= y, .x appear before yx and
for all x>y, .x appear after yx
Is this expected behavior?
Regards
Ajesh
