This reverts commit3d81e11b49. As reported by Federico, some games require the 'sort by year' since they truncate the extensions which do not fit the fixed size string array. Seemingly I did not consider that, as the documentation (both Mesa and Nvidia) mentions about program crashes ... which are worked around by setting the env. variable. This commit reinstates the workaround and enhances the documentation.
