It would also be nice to have code from the original vendor so that
we can easily see what what NetBSD changed.  This version of sort is
derived from Lite2's /usr/src/contrib/sort.  Perhaps it is in Lite1
too.  This is one of the many things in Lite2 that have not been
imported or merged.  Diffing with Lite2 shows that NetBSD changed about
1/3 of the lines, mostly in simple ways.
