Try

instead. Other thing is Data/Standard Filter (use no criteria, remove
duplicates, and copy to somewhere else).

I'm interested in why you believe the two commands would yield different
results? AFAIK they should be completely equivalent.
Jonathon: Are you *sure* the duplicates are really duplicates? Have you
checked for appended spaces? Is this an ASCII file? Could you have
characters that *look* the same, but really aren't? Because it's really
hard for me to believe that sort and uniq have any bugs at this point.
