Thanks for your interest in improving gnulib. Yes, it's mostly written in C so that'd be a more natural language to use here. But more important, gnulib is intended as a portability library for use in other utilities such as coreutils and tar and grep and so forth, and we'd need to see why the new sorting code would be useful in that context.
