I use 4.5.3 from coreutils 5.93 and have a problem with sort.
This is a common issue, due to certain locale settings which influence sorting behaviour. Please see:

Anyway - in this combination of outputs sort unusable in combination with join (which is exactly what I tried to do).
Did you mean to sort on the whole line? "-k" requires two fields, and if only one is given, the default is to consider all subsequent fields.
