This shows us that your Emacs installation does not support alphabetic
sorting at all, regardless of case, and instead only sorts
lexicographically (i.e., regardless of locale). This likely happens due
to your platform not implementing wide characters in terms of ISO 10646.
It is likely not related to your language environment, because the
implementation of ‘string-collate-lessp’ ignores the language
environment when a locale string is passed.

Kind regards,
