I could make that last statement just a bit simpler:

  function cmpcountry($a, $b)
  {
        $country1 = ($a['country'] == '') ? "zzzzzzz" : $a['country'];
        $country2 = ($b['country'] == '') ? "zzzzzzz" : $b['country'];

        return ($country1 > '' && $country1 < $country2) ? -1 : 1;
  }

*Sigh*  I shouldn't post this late at night.  This is the comparison 
function that works for me:

  function cmpcountry($a, $b)
  {
        $country1 = ($a['country'] == '') ? "zzzzzzz" : $a['country'];
        $country2 = ($b['country'] == '') ? "zzzzzzz" : $b['country'];

        return ($country1 < $country2) ? -1 : 1;
  }
