When searching, symbols are sorted thus:
- - exact match first: an exact match is when the search matches
- the complete symbol name;
- - alphabetical order: when two symbols do not match exactly,
- they are sorted in alphabetical order (in the user's current
- locale).
+ - first, exact matches, sorted alphabetically (an exact match

+ - then, other matches, sorted alphabetically.
For example: ^ATH.K matches:

[...] ATH9K_AHB ATH9K_BTCOEX_SUPPORT ATH9K_COMMON [...]
