Given buf is an array of 20 3-character strings that needs to be sorted, 
I used the following:

char buf[20][4];
...
qsort (buf, 20, 4, strcmp);

gcc -Wall -o foo foo.c
gcc gives me the warning:
warning: passing arg 4 of `qsort' from incompatible pointer type

The program works fine, however, it's just that the warning spooks me. 
Other than not saying -Wall, any idea how to get rid of this warning?
