Interesting. The overlays code should be independent of operating
system. Any idea what causes the sort order to be different?
Does the problem go away if in
(let ((minibuffer-completion-table collection)
(minibuffer-completion-predicate predicate)
(ol (make-overlay start end nil nil t)))
(overlay-put ol 'field 'completion)
you also specify a `priority' of (say) 5?
