There's no point in "fixing" this more in PHP_5_2 considering this is
so easily addressed by proper localization tool called "intl".
Here's how:
First: "pecl install intl" (and add the extension to be loaded in your
php.ini of course :)
Then use this script:
<?php
$coll = collator_create( 'sv_SV' );
$arr = array('thomas', 'susanne', 'daniel', 'emelie',
'örjan');
collator_asort( $coll, $arr, Collator::SORT_STRING );
print_r($arr);
?>
Outputs:
Array
(
[2] => daniel
[3] => emelie
[1] => susanne
[0] => thomas
[4] => örjan
)

Deassigning since Andrei does not do PHP anymore, it seems.

This is Andrei's code, according to the notes in the code.

Added support for sv_SE so setlocale returns "sv_SE" but it still
doesn't work.

setlocale(LC_ALL, 'se_SV') returns bool(false).
Even if the setlocale doesn't work it still gives a correct response
with strcmp and strcasecmp which (I think) indicates that the *nat*
functions uses another approach than the other compare functions.

Description:
------------
The bug http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=19795 is
still not fixed. When
using swedish characters and sorting them with strnatcmp and
strnatcasecmp the result appears in the wrong order.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
function test1($left, $right) {
return strnatcasecmp($left, $right);
}
function test1b($left, $right) {
return strcasecmp($left, $right);
}
$names = array('thomas', 'susanne', 'daniel', 'emelie',
'örjan');
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'se_SV');
uasort($names, 'test1');
print_r($names);
uasort($names, 'test1b');
print_r($names);
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Array
(
[2] => daniel
[3] => emelie
[1] => susanne
[0] => thomas
[4] => örjan
)
Array
(
[2] => daniel
[3] => emelie
[1] => susanne
[0] => thomas
[4] => örjan
)
Actual result:
--------------
Array
(
[4] => örjan
[2] => daniel
[3] => emelie
[1] => susanne
[0] => thomas
)
Array
(
[2] => daniel
[3] => emelie
[1] => susanne
[0] => thomas
[4] => örjan
)
