Still fails:

However, the binary search sequence looks very suspicious.
After investigation, it turns out compare_symbol_name() and strcmp()
always return positive numbers.
Looks like commit 3bc753c06dd02a35 ("kbuild: treat char as always
unsigned") is to blame.
Changing:

Dropping -funsigned-char doesn't improve upon that...
