Description:
------------
The test ext/standard/tests/array/locale_sort.phpt fails. "Île-du-Prince-Édouard" 
is sorted to the end of the array, instead of the expected 3rd position.

Test script:
---------------
<?php                                                                           
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'fr_FR', 'fr_FR.ISO8859-1');                                  
$table = array("AB" => "Alberta",

"NU" => "Nunavut",

I think this goes waaay back to: 41758

And bug 41758 is in status Won't fix, I couldn't find why.

Is there a reason behind this?

Thanks
 [2012-02-01 13:03 UTC] fa@php.net 
Works on FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE with snap php5.4-201202011030

PASS Sort with SORT_LOCALE_STRING [ext/standard/tests/array/locale_sort.phpt]
 [2012-02-01 16:32 UTC] rasmus@php.net 
Bug 41758 is a won't fix simply because it is against PHP6 and we aren't fixing 
bugs in that dead branch at this point. This also a different issue since this 
one appears to be OSX-specific. This same test passes nicely on various versions 
of Debian and Ubuntu Linux.
 [2012-02-01 17:49 UTC] carloschilazo at gmail dot com 
I think its not related to MAC OSX, test failed php5.4-201202011630 ubuntu 11.10
 [2012-02-01 19:32 UTC] rasmus@php.net 
I just ran it on an Ubuntu 11.10 box and it passed. So then it is environment-
specific somehow.
 [2012-02-02 00:55 UTC] j dot jeising at gmail dot com 
Only failed test for me too (Mac OS X 10.6.8). Any environment specific details we 
could provide to reproduce this? (LANG="de_DE.UTF-8", LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8")

I think this may just be nothing more than the default fr_FR locale selected on OS 
X nowadays simply being UTF-8 by default these days, which obviously fails to sort 
an ISO-8859-1 array correctly.

Can people who've had this fail try the attached patch and see if it fixes the 
problem, please?
