Instead, convert the element pointers inside the comparison functions.
The last argument of qsort() is supposed to be of type
int (*)(const void *, const void *). Previously, comp_links() was
defined to take struct link * instead of const void *, and the type
mismatch was silenced by casting the function pointer to void *.
This was in principle not portable because:
(1) The different pointer types may have different representations.
In a word-oriented machine, the const void * might include a byte
selector while the struct link * might not.
(2) Casting a function pointer to a data pointer can lose bits in some
memory models. Apparently this does not occur in POSIX-conforming
systems though, as dlsym() would fail if it did.
This commit also fixes hits_cmp() and compare_dir_entries(), which
had similar problems. However, I'm leaving alias_compare() in
src/intl/gettext/localealias.c unchanged for now, so as not to diverge
from the GNU version.
I also checked the bsearch() calls but they were all okay, apart from
one that used the alias_compare() mentioned above.
Don't look for gettext message catalogs in ../po/ unless ELinks is being
run as src/elinks, ./src/elinks, or .../src/elinks.
Discovered by Arnaud Giersch, this alternate fix (than what is in debian
package 0.11.1-1.4) closes debian bug #417789 and redhat bug #235411.
Also reported in: CVE-2007-2027.
Restricting it to only work with --enable-debug was also considered,
however, it is an important feature for translaters so this less
paranoid fix was chosen.
This ensures that no other string can have the same address. It
probably never was a problem though, because the strings to which it
can be compared either are allocated from the heap or are in
strings[][] which already has unshared storage.
Convert each byte of them to UCS_REPLACEMENT_CHARACTER. This may not
be the optimal solution but at least it ought to be safe. Also raise
an internal error if the value read from utf8char_len_tab[] is out of
range.
Note that ELinks is still using the RFC 2279 definition of UTF-8 and
thus allows characters up to 0x7FFFFFFF, even though RFC 3629 has
changed the maximum to 0x10FFFF.
UCS_ORPHAN_CELL is currently defined as U+0020 SPACE, which was
already used before this macro, so the behaviour does not change,
but the code seems clearer now.
I searched for ' ' and 32 and 0x20 and \x20, and replaced with
UCS_ORPHAN_CELL wherever UCS_NO_CHAR was involved. However,
some BFU widgets first draw spaces and then overwrite with text;
those will require a more complex fix if UCS_ORPHAN_CELL is ever
changed to some other character.

And adds a lengthy comment about LC_CTYPE problems.
Previously, each mapping between a codepage byte and a Unicode
character was stored as a struct table_entry, which listed both the
byte and the character. This representation may be optimal for sparse
mappings, but codepages map almost every possible byte to a character,
so it is more efficient to just have an array that lists the Unicode
character corresponding to each byte from 0x80 to 0xFF. The bytes are
not stored but rather implied by the array index. The tcvn5712 and
viscii codepages have a total of four mappings that do not fit in the
arrays, so we still use struct table_entry for those.
This change also makes cp2u() operate in O(1) time and may speed up
other functions as well.
The "sed | while read" concoction in Unicode/gen-cp looks rather
unhealthy. It would probably be faster and more readable if rewritten
in Perl, but IMO that goes for the previous version as well, so I
suppose whoever wrote it had a reason not to use Perl here.
