The problem may be in the strxfrm() function used in cRecording::SortName()
to allow locale specific sorting.

Please repeat your test with the following modification (marked XXX):

char *cRecording::SortName(void)
{
  if (!sortBuffer) {
     char *s = StripEpisodeName(strdup(FileName() + strlen(VideoDirectory) + 1));
     sortBuffer = s; return sortBuffer; //XXX insert this line
     int l = strxfrm(NULL, s, 0);
     sortBuffer = MALLOC(char, l);
     strxfrm(sortBuffer, s, l);
     free(s);
     }
  return sortBuffer;
}
