This causes a number of regressions in the gdb.opt/inline-cmds.exp
test case for me.  Not sure exactly why, but changing the std::sort
to a std::stable_sort like below fixes those regressions for me.
Maybe the logic for handling inline function blocks somehow relied
on some (undocumented) behavior of qsort for handling elements that
compare as equal?

Bye,
Ulrich
