Bug in ls in coreutils-6.9 (Slackware 12.0, anyway)

[Jim Diamond]

Hi,

It seems "ls -x" has brain damage on Slackware 12.0, which uses coreutils.
Behold:

% /bin/ls
fstab  rc.d  X11

% /bin/ls -x
X11    rc.d  X11

% env LC_ALL=en /bin/ls -x
X11  fstab  rc.d

% env LC_ALL=en_US /bin/ls -x
X11    rc.d  X11


Changing LC_COLLATE and LANG seem to have no effect.


If I can provide any other info, don't hesitate to mail me.  And if
this is a Slackware bug (which seems unlikely to me), sorry for the
false alarm.
