-** Overview of algorithm and variables.
-** The array of elements at list1 will be organized into runs of length 2,
-** or runs of length >= 2 * PTHRESH. We only try to form long runs when
-** PTHRESH adjacent pairs compare in the same way, suggesting overall order.
-**
-** Unless otherwise specified, pair pointers address the first of two elements.
-**
-** b and b+1 are a pair that compare with sense ``sense''.
-** b is the ``bottom'' of adjacent pairs that might form a longer run.
-**
-** p2 parallels b in the list2 array, where runs are defined by
-** a pointer chain.
-**
-** t represents the ``top'' of the adjacent pairs that might extend
-** the run beginning at b. Usually, t addresses a pair
-** that compares with opposite sense from (b,b+1).
-** However, it may also address a singleton element at the end of list1,
-** or it may be equal to ``last'', the first element beyond list1.
-**
-** r addresses the Nth pair following b. If this would be beyond t,
-** we back it off to t. Only when r is less than t do we consider the
-** run long enough to consider checking.
-**
-** q addresses a pair such that the pairs at b through q already form a run.
-** Often, q will equal b, indicating we only are sure of the pair itself.
-** However, a search on the previous cycle may have revealed a longer run,
-** so q may be greater than b.
-**
-** p is used to work back from a candidate r, trying to reach q,
-** which would mean b through r would be a run. If we discover such a run,
-** we start q at r and try to push it further towards t.
-** If b through r is NOT a run, we detect the wrong order at (p-1,p).
-** In any event, after the check (if any), we have two main cases.
-**
-** 1) Short run. b <= q < p <= r <= t.
-** b through q is a run (perhaps trivial)
-** q through p are uninteresting pairs
-** p through r is a run
-**
-** 2) Long run. b < r <= q < t.
-** b through q is a run (of length >= 2 * PTHRESH)
-**
-** Note that degenerate cases are not only possible, but likely.
-** For example, if the pair following b compares with opposite sense,
-** then b == q < p == r == t.
+ Also note that there are very many highly architecture specific ways
+ these might be sped up, but this is simply the most generally portable
+ code I could think of.

+ middle of the partition, all equal in value to the original
+ pivot element selected. The pc is defined by:
+
+ pc_left - the leftmost array index of the pc
+ pc_right - the rightmost array index of the pc
+
+ we start with pc_left == pc_right and only one element
+ in the pivot chunk (but it can grow during the scan).
+
+ u: uncompared elements - the set of elements in the partition
+ we have not yet compared to the pivot value. There are two
+ uncompared sets during the scan - one to the left of the pc
+ and one to the right.
+
+ u_right - the rightmost index of the left side's uncompared set
+ u_left - the leftmost index of the right side's uncompared set
+
+ The leftmost index of the left sides's uncompared set
+ doesn't need its own variable because it is always defined
+ by the leftmost edge of the whole partition (part_left). The
+ same goes for the rightmost edge of the right partition
+ (part_right).
+
+ We know there are no uncompared elements on the left once we
+ get u_right < part_left and no uncompared elements on the
+ right once u_left > part_right. When both these conditions
+ are met, we have completed the scan of the partition.
+
+ Any elements which are between the pivot chunk and the
+ uncompared elements should be less than the pivot value on
+ the left side and greater than the pivot value on the right
+ side (in fact, the goal of the whole algorithm is to arrange
+ for that to be true and make the groups of less-than and
+ greater-then elements into new partitions to sort again).
+
+ As you marvel at the complexity of the code and wonder why it
+ has to be so confusing. Consider some of the things this level
+ of confusion brings:
+
+ Once I do a compare, I squeeze every ounce of juice out of it. I
+ never do compare calls I don't have to do, and I certainly never
+ do redundant calls.
+
+ I also never swap any elements unless I can prove there is a
+ good reason. Many sort algorithms will swap a known value with
+ an uncompared value just to get things in the right place (or
+ avoid complexity :-), but that uncompared value, once it gets
+ compared, may then have to be swapped again. A lot of the
+ complexity of this code is due to the fact that it never swaps
+ anything except compared values, and it only swaps them when the
+ compare shows they are out of position.

+ in the partition (unfortunately you can't find the median value
+ without first sorting :-), so to give the algorithm a helping
+ hand, we pick 3 elements and sort them and use the median value
+ of that tiny set as the pivot value.
+
+ Some versions of qsort like to use the left middle and right as
+ the 3 elements to sort so they can insure the ends of the
+ partition will contain values which will stop the scan in the
+ compare loop, but when you have to call an arbitrarily complex
+ routine to do a compare, its really better to just keep track of
+ array index values to know when you hit the edge of the

+ Notes on the QSORT_ORDER_GUESS ifdef code:

+ 1. If I just built these partitions without swapping any (or
+ very many) elements, there is a chance that the elements are
+ already ordered properly (being properly ordered will
+ certainly result in no swapping, but the converse can't be
+ proved :-).
+
+ 2. A (properly written) insertion sort will run faster on
+ already ordered data than qsort will.
+
+ 3. Perhaps there is some way to make a good guess about
+ switching to an insertion sort earlier than partition size 6
+ (for instance - we could save the partition size on the stack
+ and increase the size each time we find we didn't swap, thus
+ switching to insertion sort earlier for partitions with a
+ history of not swapping).
+
+ 4. Naturally, if I just switch right away, it will make
+ artificial benchmarks with pure ascending (or descending)
+ data look really good, but is that a good reason in general?
+ Hard to say...
