Hi George;

A slightly flaky gsort was included in the multiview package, which I
re-wrote to do a bunch of cleanups while it was running, should be
gsort14 or some such on rtsi.

My version zeros out everything after the high msb byte in the name
except the fd pointer.  I'd found an instance or two where the original
could get confused, with the possibility of a file loss you wouldn't
find until you ran a dcheck on the drive.
