The comparison function we use for qsorting paths is overly indifferent.
Consider these 3 paths for sorting:
/foo
/bar
/foo/foo
qsort() may compare:
"/foo" with "/bar" => 0, indifference
"/bar" with "/foo/foo" => 0, indifference
and assume transitively that "/foo" and "/foo/foo" are also indifferent.
But this is wrong, we want "/foo" sorted before "/foo/foo".
The comparison function must be transitive.
