I second that !

Then I'd get the A-Z before a-z sorting behaviour (right?),
while LC_COLLATE=de seems to generate 'normal german dictionary order'.

Really, slightly confusing (:-). My problem then will be the
(L)users on Solaris CDE who swich to german (LANG=de),
think they've understood globbing, then rm [A-Z]* ...
