Sorry for responding to a patch 7000+ messages ago, but some kind
folks at Google were puzzled by this code, and I think they found a
small bug.

You allocate an array of nr_unresolved (which is the sum of
nr_ref_deltas and nr_ofs_deltas in the new world order with patch)
entries, fill only the first nr_ref_deltas entries of it, and then
sort that first n (= nr_ref_deltas) entries. The qsort and the
subsequent loop only looks at the first n entries, so nothing is
filling or reading these nr_ofs_deltas entres at the end.
I do not see any wrong behaviour other than temporary wastage of
nr_ofs_deltas pointers that would be caused by this, but this
allocation is misleading.
Also, the old code before this change had to use 'i' and 'n' because
some of the things we see in the (old) deltas[] array we scanned
with 'i' would not make it into the sorted_by_pos[] array in the old
world order, but now because you have only ref delta in a separate
ref_deltas[] array, they increment lock&step. That also puzzled me
while re-reading this code.
Perhaps something like this is needed?
