In the RefTex info manual it says:
--------
Before indexing the phrases in the phrases buffer, they should be
checked carefully for consistency. A first step is to sort the phrases
alphabetically - this is done with the command `C-c C-s'
(`reftex-index-sort-phrases'). It will sort all phrases in the buffer
alphabetically by search phrase. If you want to group certain phrases
and only sort within the groups, insert empty lines between the groups.
Sorting will only change the sequence of phrases within each group (see
the variable `reftex-index-phrases-sort-in-blocks').
--------
However, this only seems to function in very particular cases. An example that
does not function:

If one tries to sort either one of these blocks, in the results the two blocks
are mixed together. If one adds a few entries to (or
some empty lines to the end of) the first block, the first block sorts ok, but
the second does not, and everything is still mixed
together.
