 *
 * which is:
 *
 *	(dx, dy) = (line.p2.x - line.p1.x, line.p2.y - line.p1.y)
 *
 * We then define the slope of each edge as dx/dy, (which is the
 * inverse of the slope typically used in math instruction). We never
 * compute a slope directly as the value approaches infinity, but we
 * can derive a slope comparison without division as follows, (where
 * the ? represents our compare operator).

 * Note that from step 2 to step 3 there is no change needed in the
 * sign of the result since both ady and bdy are guaranteed to be
 * greater than or equal to 0.
 *
 * When using this slope comparison to sort edges, some care is needed
 * when interpreting the results. Since the slope compare operates on
 * distance vectors from top to bottom it gives a correct left to
 * right sort for edges that have a common top point, (such as two
 * edges with start events at the same location). On the other hand,
 * the sense of the result will be exactly reversed for two edges that
