----------------------------------------------------------------

I believe that the LSD implementation by Travis is stable by construction, I 
will recheck it.
 Regarding stable_sort – i'm trying to find a way to rely on stable_sort 
instead of radix sort for particular types of distribution.
These checks are done in boost::spread_sort but I haven't got the math behind 
yet.
In particular, they detect is sequence is sorted and find min/max values.
>From that they can conclude if the sequence is bucket sorted or it is not 
>sorted but better to be handled by another algorithm.

> For integer arrays with a non-tiny range of values, we currently use a stable 
> sort. It may be faster to use a radix sort instead.
