Changes (by dons):

 * cc: dons at galois.com, duncan.coutts at worc.ox.ac.uk, rl at cse.unsw.edu.au
 (added)
  * version:  6.6 => 6.8

Comment:

 We should also rerun the benchmarks in the light of the changes that made
 it into head since April when the fusion library was last benchmarked.
 There's no that much more to do here, to finish the job.
