I must admit that I didn't follow the data structure discussion in every
detail, but I find something confusing: In Data.FiniteMap.addListToFM_C,
the combining function gets the old value as the 1st argument and the new
value as the 2nd one. In Data.Map.insertWithKey (and friends), this seems
to be the other way round, which is undocumented and *very* confusing when
trying to port things from FiniteMap to Map. Is there a deep reason for this?

Cheers,
