So you passed qsort the wrong comparison program and it crashed?
This is natural enough. qsort takes blind, i.e. void types -- the compiler cannot not know what type you are passing into it. It's your job to keep them straight. This is what allows qsort to be flexible.

cmp_float
COMPARE(3pub) C Programmer's Manual COMPARE(3pub)
NAME
cmp_set_offset, cmp_struct, cmp_char, cmp_short, cmp_int, cmp_long, cmp_float, cmp_double, cmp_long_double, cmp_schar, cmp_uchar,
cmp_ushort, cmp_uint, cmp_ulong, cmp_charptr, cmp_chararr - comparison functions for qsort, bsearch, and others
SYNOPSIS
#include <cmp.h>
void cmp_set_offset(size_t offset, int (*)(const void *, const void *));
int cmp_struct(const void *, const void *);
int cmp_char(const void *, const void *);
int cmp_short(const void *, const void *);
int cmp_int(const void *, const void *);
int cmp_long(const void *, const void *);
int cmp_float(const void *, const void *);
int cmp_double(const void *, const void *);
int cmp_long_double(const void *, const void *);
int cmp_schar(const void *, const void *);
int cmp_uchar(const void *, const void *);
int cmp_ushort(const void *, const void *);
int cmp_uint(const void *, const void *);
int cmp_ulong(const void *, const void *);
int cmp_charptr(const void *, const void *);
int cmp_chararr(const void *, const void *);
DESCRIPTION
The functions declared above, with the exception of cmp_set_offset, compare two array elements of the indicated type when given pointers to
them. The functions are designed to work with qsort(3), bsearch(3), and a number of other library functions which all need the same type
of comparison function. They all return negative if the value indicated by the first argument is less than the second, 0 if they are the
same, and positive otherwise.
cmp_struct compares elements of a structure. It needs to know the offset of the element, and a comparison function suitable for the type
of the element. These are set with cmp_set_offset, which should be called before qsort(3). The settings stay in effect until changed.
