I'd only consider it "broken" if you get different sort order from
sort(1) under the same locale.  Here is an example from Fedora 4
showing that sort(1) has the same ideas about what de_DE sort order
is:

[tgl ~]$ cat zzz
SUEKO
SUE E
SUE T
[tgl ~]$ sort zzz
SUE E
SUE T
SUEKO
[tgl ~]$ LANG=de_DE.utf8 sort zzz
SUE E
SUEKO
SUE T
[tgl ~]$
