  17.      _ssss_tttt_rrrr_cccc_oooo_llll_llll returns an integer greater than, equal to, or less than zero in
  18.      direct correlation to whether string _s_1 is greater than, equal to, or
  19.      less than the string _s_2.  The comparison is based on strings interpreted
  20.      as appropriate to the program's locale for category _LLLL_CCCC______CCCC_OOOO_LLLL_LLLL_AAAA_TTTT_EEEE [see
  21.      _ssss_eeee_tttt_llll_oooo_cccc_aaaa_llll_eeee(3C)].
  22.  
  23.      Both _ssss_tttt_rrrr_cccc_oooo_llll_llll and _ssss_tttt_rrrr_xxxx_ffff_rrrr_mmmm provide for locale-specific string sorting.
  24.      _ssss_tttt_rrrr_cccc_oooo_llll_llll is intended for applications in which the number of comparisons
  25.      per string is small.  When strings are to be compared a number of times,
  26.      _ssss_tttt_rrrr_xxxx_ffff_rrrr_mmmm is a more appropriate utility because the transformation process
  27.      occurs only once.
