thanks

Hello,

the attached patch changes the qsort function call in src/gxfcopy.c
so that it becomes 64-bit clean. 

Without this patch, the code segfaults when qsort calls the
compare_glyph_names function because sizeof(int) == 4 but 
sizeof(gs_copied_glyph_name_t*) == 8 on most 64-bit architectures.

Many packages in unstable currently FTBFS on 64-bit architectures
during documentation generation because of this bug.

Regards
Andreas Jochens
