I no longer have the debugging set up for this (calls to `message'
etc., since it is impossible to use the debugger with Icomplete).  

But IIRC it was not very different from that.  But this the sorting
I use here is the Icicles sorting, so the efficiency of its
implementation should be irrelevant to emacs -Q.  That is, if
Icicle mode is on, I use the current Icicles sort function.
