Andrew Burgess 45f47c3a25 gdb: Ensure that !(a < a) is true in sort_cmp on obj_section objects
After the switch to use std::sort, if GDB is compiled with the
-D_GLIBCXX_DEBUG=1 flag then we see an error when using sort_cmp (in
objfiles.c) to sort obj_section objects.

The problem is that std::sort checks that the condition !(a < a)
holds, and currently this is not true.  GDB's sort_cmp is really
designed to sort lists in which no obj_section repeats, however, there
is some code in place to try and ensure we get a stable sort order if
there is a bug in GDB, unfortunately this code fails the above check.

By reordering some of the checks inside sort_cmp, it is pretty easy to
ensure that the !(a < a) condition holds.

I've not bothered to make this condition check optimal, like I said
this code is only in place to ensure that we get stable results if GDB
goes wrong, so I've made the smallest change needed to get the correct
behaviour.

After this commit I see no regressions when running GDB compiled with
-D_GLIBCXX_DEBUG=1.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* objfiles.c (sort_cmp): Ensure that !(a < a) holds true.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
