Is there a reason why std::less() does not work here? Maybe because it's in an uninstantiated context?

I know it doesn’t because my earlier patch failed to compile (gcc), but it did seem to compile locally (clang), so it might be a workaround for a gcc bug.

I suspect it has something to do with the fact that the comparator argument to sortedListDump is "const Comparator&" and the comparator argument to sort is "Comparator", but the fact that it does seem to work in clang confuses me a bit.
