-** ssort() -- Fast, small, qsort()-compatible Shell sort
-**

- * Manuel Novoa III Dec 2000
- *
- * There were several problems with the qsort code contained in uClibc.
- * It assumed sizeof(int) was 2 and sizeof(long) was 4. It then had three
- * seperate quiicksort routines based on the width of the data passed: 2, 4,
- * or anything else <= 128. If the width was > 128, it returned -1 (although
- * qsort should not return a value) and did no sorting. On i386 with
- * -Os -fomit-frame-pointer -ffunction-sections, the text segment of qsort.o
- * was 1358 bytes, with an additional 4 bytes in bss.
- *
- * I decided to completely replace the existing code with a small
- * implementation of a shell sort. It is a drop-in replacement for the
- * standard qsort and, with the same gcc flags as above, the text segment
- * size on i386 is only 183 bytes.
- *
- * Grabbed original file rg_ssort.c from snippets.org.
- * Modified original code to avoid possible overflow in wgap calculation.
- * Modified wgap calculation in loop and eliminated variables gap and wnel.
