Xfce uses the environment variable LC_COLLATE to determine the sorting
order. On an out-of-the-box Slackware system this will be set to
LC_COLLATE=C.

Be aware that changing this value might affect the execution of lots
of shell scripts (if those scripts silently depend on a sorting order
not defined in the script).

>From the bash manpage:

  LC_COLLATE
      This variable determines the collation order used when sorting
      the results of pathname expansion, and determines the behavior
      of range expressions, equivalence classes, and collating sequences
      within pathname expansion and pattern matching.
