Changelog:
- Multi-threaded sort in all cases to improve performance
- Bugfix in -o to allow the output file to be the same as one of the input

- Manpage improvements
Changelog:

are converted to uppercase (not lowercase) before comparison.
- Fixed crashes with some -k arguments.

Patches are highly appreciated.
