Originally reported as Red Hat Bug with patch:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1909988

When sorting files based on the modification time from remote glob in
the client SFTP, the return values from sglob_comp() is wrong (1 or 0
and 0 or -1 with -r flag) causing the files are incorrectly sorted
inside of the qsort, which expects -1, 0 or 1. For more information,
see the analysis in the above bug.
