i386/74593 Installer installs the wrong version of linux_base

The origin of the problem is the index_search function in
src/usr.sbin/sysinstall/index.c, called from config.c:526 .

The search is done in a sorted INDEX so linux_base-6* comes before
linux_base-7* (which is the "real" linux_base). 

Obviously this bug appears only when there are more than one package
with the same basename.

Please note that in 5.3-RELEASE, only 2 packages of those included
depended on linux_base-6.
