New Comment:
Saying that something is supported in PHP 5 isn't gonna make this
'feature' (or fix, IMO) end up in PHP 4. Backport it is.

No bug here, PHP 4 never had support for sorting locale based. I added
this function to PHP 5.0.2 to support it.

It's a bug if *sort() functions can't handle locales correctly.

No bug here, the functions don't understand locales unless you add as
second "sort-flag" parameter SORT_LOCALE_STRING to asort(). This option
is introduced in PHP 5.0.2.
The following works fine (if you have the fr_FR locale installed):
<?php
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'fr_FR');
$table = array("AB" => "Alberta",
"BC" => "Colombie-Britannique",
"MB" => "Manitoba",
"NB" => "Nouveau-Brunswick",
"NL" => "Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador",
"NS" => "Nouvelle-Écosse",
"ON" => "Ontario",
"PE" => "Île-du-Prince-Édouard",
"QC" => "Québec",
"SK" => "Saskatchewan",
"NT" => "Territoires du Nord-Ouest",
"NU" => "Nunavut",
"YT" => "Territoire du Yukon");
asort($table, SORT_LOCALE_STRING);
var_dump($table);

With what locale do you expect that output?

Description:
------------
Accented characters are not properly sorted. For example, the right
sorting of "à" is between "a" and "b", for "é" it's between "e" and
"f", and so on...
Reproduce code:
---------------
$table = array("AB" => "Alberta",
"BC" => "Colombie-Britannique",
"MB" => "Manitoba",
"NB" => "Nouveau-Brunswick",
"NL" => "Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador",
"NS" => "Nouvelle-Écosse",
"ON" => "Ontario",
"PE" => "Île-du-Prince-Édouard",
"QC" => "Québec",
"SK" => "Saskatchewan",
"NT" => "Territoires du Nord-Ouest",
"NU" => "Nunavut",
"YT" => "Territoire du Yukon");
asort($table);
Expected result:
----------------
array(13) { ["AB"]=> string(7) "Alberta" ["BC"]=> string(20)
"Colombie-Britannique" ["PE"]=> string(21) "Île-du-Prince-Édouard"
["MB"]=> string(8) "Manitoba" ["NB"]=> string(17) "Nouveau-Brunswick"
["NS"]=> string(15) "Nouvelle-Écosse" ["NU"]=> string(7) "Nunavut"
["ON"]=> string(7) "Ontario" ["QC"]=> string(6) "Québec" ["SK"]=>
string(12) "Saskatchewan" ["NL"]=> string(23)
"Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador" ["YT"]=> string(19) "Territoire du Yukon"
["NT"]=> string(25) "Territoires du Nord-Ouest"}
Actual result:
--------------
array(13) { ["AB"]=> string(7) "Alberta" ["BC"]=> string(20)
"Colombie-Britannique" ["MB"]=> string(8) "Manitoba" ["NB"]=>
string(17) "Nouveau-Brunswick" ["NS"]=> string(15) "Nouvelle-Écosse"
["NU"]=> string(7) "Nunavut" ["ON"]=> string(7) "Ontario" ["QC"]=>
string(6) "Québec" ["SK"]=> string(12) "Saskatchewan" ["NL"]=>
string(23) "Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador" ["YT"]=> string(19) "Territoire
du Yukon" ["NT"]=> string(25) "Territoires du Nord-Ouest" ["PE"]=>
string(21) "Île-du-Prince-Édouard" }
