Thank you for this excellent improvement of the sort function! I would
like to back-port the new feature in the Compat library, specifically in
the emacs-30 branch of the Compat repository. I've seen you mentioned
some pure Lisp code, implementing the new feature, in a slower, but
backward compatible way, which we could perhaps use?

Daniel
