Subject: 24.3.50; "s" no longer works as documented in dired
Date: Fri, 24 Jan 2014 01:33:46 +0100
When I do:

   $ emacs -Q

and then view my home directory in dired with:

   C-x C-f RET

and then list all files in decreasing order of their file sizes with:

   C-u s S RET

(making the switches read: "-alS")

and then press "s", dired says "Dired by date" but still orders by size.

This works as expected in Emacs 22.1.1, where "s" then sorts by date.
