As stated in the specification:

  7. The ordering of the keys associated with each line is that defined by
     strcmp() or strncmp() when the environment variable LC_COLLATE is set to
     the value specified in the individual test scripts (normally "POSIX").
     Thus you must compare keys using one of these functions.
