This is either with common downstream i18n patches or future
multibyte handling in upstream sort.

Unfortunately LC_CTYPE is would up with LC_MESSAGES too (since

What I wrote is only a suggestion.  As I'm far from expert in these
matters, I'll leave the final form to you all.  Thanks for your work on
coreutils, and your attention to this matter.  I think my work is done here.

With no further comments in 6 years, I'm closing this bug.
