Some time ago, Gilles adviced me to do the following :

LC_COLLATE=C htmerge -c site1.conf
LC_COLLATE=C htmerge -c site2.conf
LC_COLLATE=C htmerge -c site3.conf
*then*
LC_COLLATE=C htmerge -c site1.conf -m site2.conf
LC_COLLATE=C htmerge -c site1.conf -m site3.conf

We both were not sure wether it was necessary to do the first pass or not
but I still do this nowadays and it is working perfectly.

Note : "LC_COLLATE=C" is there because I use another locale than C (or
en_US).
