[Patch] Fix string::compare vs 64-bit


Hi,

today, while working on the warning issue, I noticed that we had a very old problem for string::compare vs 64-bit arches, ultimately due to the fact that those funtions are supposed to return an *int* everywhere: basically, we are storing in an int the difference of two string::size_type, which is 64-bits wide on 64-bit machines. I think we can deal with the issue like in the below patch and I also tested that on 32-bit machines the additional comparisons are optimized out. Alternately, still conforming, we could also simply clip the result to -1 and 1 but this option seems simpler but worse to me, because old v3 users may reasonably expect more than 1 bit of info out of compare when the result is not zero...

Please let me know in case you find something wrong with the solution, otherwise I will go ahead, mainline only for now.

Tested x86/x86_64-linux.

Paolo.
