      * Correct Data.Map Arbitrary instance never to return unbalanced trees.
      * Improve Data.Set benchmark.
      * Improve benchmark infrastructure and Data.Map benchmark
      * Improve the performance of Data.Set balance function

Have *any* of these patches been proposed for review? containers is a
critical library, and under libraries@ maintainance. This is not what
you do prior to a release.

Ian, Simon M.: did you get a chance to sign off on this?
