Interesting. If you wanna debug, I'm open to patches.
Probably related to the change in sorting algorithm to pattern-defeating quicksort in Go 1.19.
I'm not a go programmer, but you'd think there would be a sort_unstable() to get the faster algorithm rather than breaking a bunch of things that depend on stability.
Since this package seems to be about linking to case insensitive libraries, the result might be actually valid. But the verbatim check is too strict for an unstable sort. How about running the output through an undependent stable sort (e.g. unix sort program with case insensitive option) and check that the result is unchanged? Would that be valid?

There is probably already some difference between sort.Sort
and sort.Stable
