Linux:
> x<-c("0","1");y<-c("a","-1"); x<y
[1] TRUE TRUE
Mac:
x<-c("0","1");y<-c("a","-1"); x<y
[1] TRUE FALSE
On both systems, LC_COLLATE/LC_CTYPE/LANG are set to en_US.UTF-8
In Java,FWIW, I get the Mac answer if I use String.compareTo and the
Linux answer if I use Collator.compareTo, but the result is consistent
on Mac and Linux.
