Please don't follow up to completely unrelated bugs.


Current ls produces non-standard sort order.  There is no switch
provided to change to original behaviour!


This is dependent on your locale. Set the environment variable
LC_COLLATE to C if you want an ASCII sort rather than a dictionary sort.


For the files a b c d e A B C D E, ls produces:
a A b B c C d D e D
but should produce:
A B C D E a b c d e


No, it "should" do what it's doing.

Binary /bin/ls matches with working system, so some library
or other file is at fault.
