** New features
sort can now compresses temporary files to improve performance of
very large sorts.
By default, sort usually compresses each temporary file it writes.
When sorting very large inputs, this can result in sort using far
less temporary disk space and in improved performance.
* Noteworthy changes in release 6.7 (2006-12-08) [stable]
