Mark, Ben,

Mark submitted an initial patch that I have been slow to respond to.
Mark, is there anything in Ben's patch that could be included in your
patch?
I included a reference to the feature test macros used to enable
qsort_r.  That's pretty much the only significant difference.  The other
changes were to alter the spacing in the SYNOPSIS section to reflect the
more usual style for function pointers.

I've attached a new patch that (a) has all of Mark's patch, (b) a
reference to the feature test macros, (c) the two spacing changes in the
type of the function pointers, and (d) replacing "sorts an array" with
"sort and array" which, I think, is better when two functions are being
described.  I hope that helps.  If it doesn't please feel free to ignore
it.
Ben, thanks for that. I've applied all of the above.

Mark, thanks for the initial patch!

Cheers,

Michael
