Hi,

 the code to delete an entry is buggy (no wonder, I wrote it without
knowing anything about R/B trees!). As map and multimap are usually
implemented as R/B trees, too, I'll just use a multimap, which should also
solve porting problems (R/B tree was the piece of code that caused the
problems when compiling XBF for MPW, remember?).

 Certainly. But I don't think I'm going to do it. I tried for two weeks and
then I decided it wasn't worth the effort. OK, that was a couple of years
ago, so maybe someone with more knowledge than I had then and enough time
could get it sorted out.

Cheers,
