If you want to get fancy, the merge should use a priority queue (like
in the heapsort algorithm) instead of a linear scan through the
incoming iters, to find the next item to output.  That lowers the
running time to O(n log k) instead of O(n*k), where k is the number of
iterators and n is the length.
