# callback of python function to qsort(3) some numbers - this is just a example
# using an existing libc function that uses a callback; it's not practical for
# real world use as it comes with a huge overhead:
# - sorting requires many calls of the comparison function
# - each such callback back into python comes with a lot of overhead
# - on top of that, for this example, 2 memcpy(3)s are needed to access the
#   data to compare, further adding to the overhead
