dlltool 2.11: assignment of ordinals depends on the platform

[Eberhard Mattes]

Before assigning ordinals, dlltool uses qsort() with pfunc() to sort
by ordinal.  Exports which have not yet been assigned an ordinal all
compare equal.  In consequence, the order of those exports depends on
the implementation of qsort() as qsort() is not required to be stable.

Here's a patch which makes the sort stable, resulting in identical
results on different platforms, independent of the implementation of
qsort():

    export_type *bp = *(export_type **) b;
    if (ap->ordinal == bp->ordinal)
!     return 0;
  
    /* unset ordinals go to the bottom */
    if (ap->ordinal == -1)
--- 2831,2837 ----
    export_type *ap = *(export_type **) a;
    export_type *bp = *(export_type **) b;
    if (ap->ordinal == bp->ordinal)
!     return strcmp (ap->name, bp->name);       /* Make the sort stable */
  
    /* unset ordinals go to the bottom */
    if (ap->ordinal == -1)
