Thanks for your quick and detailed reply to a mistaken bug report.  My
other mistake:

$ export LC_ALL=en_AU.utf-8; export LC_COLLATE=C; locale
LANG=en_AU.utf-8
LC_CTYPE="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_TIME="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_PAPER="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_NAME="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_ALL=en_AU.utf-8

$ unset LC_ALL; locale
LANG=en_AU.utf-8
LC_CTYPE="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_TIME="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_COLLATE=C
LC_MONETARY="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_PAPER="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_NAME="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_AU.utf-8"
LC_ALL=

Thanks again.
