Do we want to use 'LC_ALL=C sort' for deterministic sorting, rather
than facing differences when different maintainers use locales with
slightly different collation rules?

Because the curl command is piped to sort, we don't exit the script
with non-zero status if the curl step fails.  Is that problematic?
