} I'm not especially fond of the \n escapes. Would prefer they were mapped
} to spaces. However, failing to group baz and foo is clearly wrong.

Happens with \t, \a, etc. as well, though not with e.g. a backslash before
a space.  So something odd is going on with the string comparisons; maybe
a shared global buffer is getting overwritten during sorting?
