What you need to do is add
LC_COLLATE = 'C' LC_CTYPE = 'C'
to the command. This is already important in 8.4 to ensure the command
won't fail if the installation default locale is not C.
The difficulty of course is that this is only for 8.4 and up, older
versions won't take it. I don't know the context well enough to suggest
how you might want to deal with version-sensitive commands (probably you
have some plan for that already).
