I'm guessing that there is no bug in sort, but I'll wait for more
info from you of an actual sample of the lines you want sorted, what
you tried, what you got, and a comparison to what you wanted, before
declaring this as not a bug.

There is no bug in sort, it was just that I had to be told explicitly
that sort options could be added to -k as it wasn't so clear from the manual page. An additional line of clarification would go a long way in making this very useful capability more available.
