On a stock Redhat 6.2 machine I see that file is part of the
glibc-2.1.3-15 package.  Which probably means that an upgrade of glibc
should solve the problem.

  rpm -qf /usr/share/locale/en_GB/LC_COLLATE
  glibc-2.1.3-15
  
  rpm -qi glibc
  [...deleted a lot of information...]
  The glibc package also contains national language (locale) support
  and timezone databases.

Note that I could not recreate your problem with your test case on the
version installed on this machine.  So perhaps this version I list is
already a corrected version?
