Best keep all responses on the list.
The log you sent privately, did indeed indicate a locale issue.
In particular sort was operating in LC_ALL=C mode when
it should have been in fr_FR.utf8.  This is the only test
that sets LC_MESSAGES separately to LC_COLLATE etc.
so perhaps if we use LC_ALL for each sort invocation in
this test, it avoids this particular issue on your system?

Can you try running the above make check command again,
with the attached patch applied.

thanks,
Pádraig
