This shows us that your Emacs installation does not support alphabetic
sorting at all, regardless of case, and instead only sorts
lexicographically (i.e.,
My emacs is from homebrew without any manual settings on locale. I assume a
number of locale settings come with it. I have not had any problems before
this.
OS X does not have LANG envvar set. This computer came with Finnish

Looking at the C source of ‘string-collate-lessp’ (src/fns.c), it looks
like there exists a case where Emacs itself will fall back on
‘string-lessp’ even when ‘string-collate-lessp’ is invoked.

Thanks for replies,
I am using:
GNU Emacs 26.1 (build 1, x86_64-apple-darwin14.5.0, NS appkit-1348.17

Is your Emacs≤24? Emacs (surprisingly) only gained a facility for
alphabetic (locale-sensitive) sorting with ver. 25. Before

I can not see any change in function with the new code. Alphabetical
sorting is fixedly case sensitive.
I am definitely running the new code for org-table-sort-lines at the head
of the master branch. I can see there have been changes. Universal argument
does not change the behaviour, either.

org-sort has an optional argument with-case. By default its sorting ignores
the case. When org-sort is called within a table, it calls
org-table-sort-line with the argument. org-table-sort-line defines a let
variable sort-fold-case (not with-case) but fails to use either variable
when sorting and
