You really have to watch out for differences caused by the LANG

Beware: LANG is overriden by the various LC_* variables, in turn
overriden by LC_ALL. If you absolutely need consistency above
localization, you might want LC_ALL=C instead.
Most often, the compatibility issues are fixed with LC_COLLATE=C.
Which circles back to it is much better/easier/more reliable/more
consistent to use a "native" interface rather than trying to interface
with a program and interpret the text output...
