I can verify this bug on Darwin/Mac OS X with both Apples 3.1.3 and DarwinPorts 3.2.2;

I have found a bug in the way sqlite treats ORDER BY clauses.
to reproduce the bug, run this script against an empty database (memory db
would do):

  ===========================================
  CREATE TABLE Eidh (
    ekey VARCHAR(12) NOT NULL,
    perigrafh VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL,
    PRIMARY KEY(ekey));


  INSERT INTO Eidh VALUES('0001','bla');

  CREATE TABLE KinApo (
    ekey VARCHAR(12) NOT NULL ,
    date DATE,
    polhths INTEGER);

  INSERT INTO KinApo VALUES('0001',38353,40);
  INSERT INTO KinApo VALUES('0001',38353,30);
  INSERT INTO KinApo VALUES('0001',38353,20);

  select kinapo.ekey, kinapo.polhths
  from eidh inner join kinapo on eidh.ekey=kinapo.ekey
  order by eidh.ekey, kinapo.polhths
  ==============================================

versin 3.2.2 of sqlite gives the following result set, which is unordered:

  0001 40
  0001 30
  0001 20

also, EXPLAIN shows that no sorting is taking place.

This is a SERIOUS malfunction!
can you pls verify this in other environments (I am using dll 3.2.2, locally
compiled),
and do something about it.
