Replacing Data.List.sort

[Gwern Branwen]

Thought I'd mention http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/2143 as
being in libraries@ bailiwick.

It's been a while since
http://neilmitchell.blogspot.com/2008/03/sorting-at-speed.html and
http://haskell.org/pipermail/haskell-cafe/2008-March/thread.html#40164
but I hope with some Criterion benchmarks, the case for replacing the
current GHC Data.List.sort with the YHC Data.List.sort becomes a
no-brainer.

(If people want to improve the Criterion benchmark and run it
themselves to verify that YHC is always faster, that'd be great also!)
