/*
 *  qsort.c: standard quicksort algorithm
 *
 *  Modifications from vanilla NetBSD source:
 *    Add do ... while() macro fix
 *    Remove __inline, _DIAGASSERTs, __P
 *    Remove ill-considered "swap_cnt" switch to insertion sort,
 *    in favor of a simple check for presorted input.
 *
 *  CAUTION: if you change this file, see also qsort_arg.c, gen_qsort_tuple.pl
