See here:

The bug is also present in CF's Java 7 (I didn't test Java 8 or Python). However, it seems that this cannot be used to hack Java or Python solutions, because the minimum size of a counterexample is 67108864 (67 million), too much to give in input. I guess that's a good thing -- imagine the mess this would create!

Too little comments for such an impressive bug :(

dj3500, could you please add some tags (python, java, sort)? It was not so easy to find your post when it was gone from the feed.

Another reason to better have your own sort if you use Java (even if there's no small counter exampe)
