- LOCAL FUNCTION
-
- compare_psymbols -- compare two partial symbols by name
-
- DESCRIPTION
-
- Given pointers to pointers to two partial symbol table entries,
- compare them by name and return -N, 0, or +N (ala strcmp).
- Typically used by sorting routines like qsort().
-
- NOTES
-
- Does direct compare of first two characters before punting
- and passing to strcmp for longer compares. Note that the
- original version had a bug whereby two null strings or two
- identically named one character strings would return the
- comparison of memory following the null byte.

+/* This is like strcmp except that it ignores whitespace and treats
+ '(' as the first non-NULL character in terms of ordering. Like
+ strcmp (and unlike strcmp_iw), it returns negative if STRING1 <
+ STRING2, 0 if STRING2 = STRING2, and positive if STRING1 > STRING2
+ according to that ordering.
+
+ If a list is sorted according to this function and if you want to
+ find names in the list that match some fixed NAME according to
+ strcmp_iw(LIST_ELT, NAME), then the place to start looking is right
+ where this function would put NAME.
+
+ Here are some examples of why using strcmp to sort is a bad idea:
+
+ Whitespace example:
+
+ Say your partial symtab contains: "foo<char *>", "goo". Then, if
+ we try to do a search for "foo<char*>", strcmp will locate this
+ after "foo<char *>" and before "goo". Then lookup_partial_symbol
+ will start looking at strings beginning with "goo", and will never
+ see the correct match of "foo<char *>".
+
+ Parenthesis example:
+
+ In practice, this is less like to be an issue, but I'll give it a
+ shot. Let's assume that '$' is a legitimate character to occur in
+ symbols. (Which may well even be the case on some systems.) Then
+ say that the partial symbol table contains "foo$" and "foo(int)".
+ strcmp will put them in this order, since '$' < '('. Now, if the
+ user searches for "foo", then strcmp will sort "foo" before "foo$".
+ Then lookup_partial_symbol will notice that strcmp_iw("foo$",
+ "foo") is false, so it won't proceed to the actual match of
+ "foo(int)" with "foo". */
