Tiebreak patch

I think you're right that as long as you stay within the first 256 points,
there won't be any chance of different sequences comparing identically.

I think your understanding of the spec appears correct, too, but I'm a bit out
of my ken as well.  If I understand it correctly, a tiebreak along the lines of
the attached patch should do it.

However, the VB runtime passes along flags to VarBstrCmp like NORM_IGNORECASE,
and I'm unsure how to deal with the tiebreak when things like that are passed
along.	See:
http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr10/#Multi_Level_Comparison
Ignoring the flags altogether is also not correct, that causes some tests to
fail.

Any suggestions?
