State-Changed-When: Sun Feb 23 13:36:24 2003
State-Changed-Why:
    Confirmed. The reason is simple: compare is implemented in
    terms of strcoll (config/locale/*/collate_members.cc). The
    same can be said for transform (strxfrm). Instead, a driver
    should continue if necessary past any '\0' (basically 
    when the first hunk compares equal) and invoke repeatedly
    the underlying C functions. Will do...
