# 235267 11-May-2012 gabor

Add a BSD-licensed sort rewrite that was started by me and later completed
with the major functionality and optimizations by Oleg Moskalenko.
It is compatible with the latest version of POSIX and the current GNU sort
version that we have in base. Beside this, it implements all the
functionality introduced in later versions of GNU sort. For now, it will
be installed as "bsdsort", keeping GNU sort as the default sort
implementation.
