Hello, folks, once again.

Maybe somebody of you encountered with that problem in thunar.
...especially if you use cyrillic letters in file and directory names.

So, I have installed the latest version of thunar (1.4.0), and it
incorrectly sorts contents of my folders. I can not even understand the
way thunar sorts content of any folder.

The "sort order" by name in one directory is following (ascending) (from
top to bottom):

* cyrillic upper letters,
* hidden (dot) files,
* digits,
* lower cyrillic letters,
* english lower letters,
* again cyrillic lower letters,
* english lower and upper letters (together) insensetive to case.

The "sort order" by name in another directory is following (ascending)
(from top to bottom):

* cyrillic upper letters,
* digits,
* cyrillic lower letters,
* again digits,
* again cyrillic lower letters,
* english lower letters,
* and again cyrillic lower letters.

Before version 1.4.0, everything was OK.
So what happened to thunar? Why such an "improvement"?
