For now this should do, but the "packet_compare_lists" may later
want to become more specific to the needs of these callers.  It
tries to be a generic comparison function for list of strings, but
what these callers feed is always two-element tuple, whose first
element is an integer (not just a random thing that can be made into
a string to be compared with "ne") and whose second element is a
string.
