Please use FOR_EACH_HASH_TABLE_ELEMENT to put elements on the
vector instead of the htab traversal.

The compare function looks like we will end up having many equal elements
(and thus random ordering on hosts where qsort doesn't behave "sane"
here, like Solaris IIRC).  Unless all sections are named (which it looks like)
and we have only one object block per section name (which it looks like).
Thus can you re-write the compare function to just

  return strcmp (p1->sect->named.name, p2->sect->named.name);

?  (maybe with an assert that SECTION_NAMED is set on both)

Ok with those changes.  Btw, for portability the compare function should
be a total ordering, thus return 0 only iff p1 == p2, otherwise it won't
fix the bug on hosts where qsort may change the order of equal comparing
elements non-deterministically (IIRC Solaris).

Thanks,
Richard.
