I see some weirdness too, but mine doesn't match yours. (Ubuntu 16.04
here, though.)
I note that sort(1) says:
*** WARNING *** The locale specified by the environment affects
sort order. Set LC_ALL=C to get the traditional sort order that uses
native byte values.
So do some testing with:
cat spam | LC_ALL=C sort -k1 -t"|"
and report.
