It's Ord should work, I've used it in anger, otherwise let me know and 
I'll fix it when I have time!

Mine may be unacceptably slow due to the dependent libraries.

I sent some "make it turbo" patches to the maintainer of

to do a non-maintainer-upload that contains purely performance 
enhancements and no functionality changes?
