When I use ru_RU locale, be it KOI8-R or UTF-8, I get sorting rules completely
different from standard C locale. The leading dot in file names is no longer
counted as a char. So, root's homedir in ru_RU locale looks like:
.aptitude
backup
.bash_history
.bash_logout
.bashrc
bin
Note that dot files are mixed with normal ones. Normally (and in C locale)
this dir looks like:
.aptitude
.bash_history
.bash_logout
.bashrc
backup
bin
As far as I can guess, that's the way it should be in any locale.

No, it is standard for most locales to ignore the leading dot when
collating. en_US does this also. If you don't want that behavior
(personally, I hate it), then set LC_COLLATE=C.
