This isn't documented in the ls(1) manual. According to your tip, I
noticed that the sort(1) page page reads:
*** WARNING *** The locale specified by the environment affects
sort order. Set LC_ALL=C to get the traditional sort order that
uses native byte values.
It would be good if ls(1) carried similar paragraph.
