My Japanised linux box has been working well without this option for sorting
, seaching or other operations about tables that have Japanese text data,
however the manual descrive it affects sveral environments related programing
as well as admin stuffs.

It makes using multiple-byte charactors in regular expressions, LIKE and
some other features possible as you may have know. please see the below
URL for detail.

I am not sure what you meant by 'sorting Japanese text'.
It works like a telephone directory as long as sorted data is all in
Hiragana or Katakana.
I hope it will work for you.
