I took a quick look, but it isn't immediately obvious how the test code
works. (Maybe I'll take a longer look later.)

Meanwhile, I think a simple test would be to do a look-up for "foo" on
the list "a/foo.cpp", "a/bar.cpp", "a/farboo.cpp". IIUC, the current
behavior will select "a/farboo.cpp" as the 'top' match (because it *is*
a match, and it sorts lexicographically before "a/foo.cpp"), even though
the user more likely wanted the latter.
