Hi ,
Ruslan thank you for your answer.
Your forwarded test program works correctly.
Sorry for missleading information I think my problem was with the sort which
does strange sorting ...
The sort version is probably quite old
-------------
/* $FreeBSD: src/gnu/usr.bin/sort/sort.c,v 1.15.2.4 2002/04/17 11:41:42 ache
Exp $ */
---------------
os version FreeBSD 4.8-RC it does the same on Alpha and on x386 platforms
with 4.8-RC
and just one week old 4.8 -stable.
I assume that the sort have no clue of ligatures or comparision of strings
with ligatures
Assumpsion of sort being an old version based on fact that , sort under
Linux works correctly.

I not read hackers.
His information is wrong, test program included:
#include <locale.h>
main() {
setlocale(LC_COLLATE, "de_DE.ISO8859-1");
printf("%d\n",strcoll("\xdf", "sr"));
printf("%d\n",strcoll("\xdf", "ss"));
printf("%d\n",strcoll("\xdf", "st"));
}
