 Sage implements an iterator on finite words n lexicographic order, and
 such a thing is not possible. In particular:

 {{{
 sage: w=Words([0,1],infinite=False).__iter__()
 sage: w.next()
 word:
 sage: w.next()
 word: 0
 sage:
 sage: w.next()
 word: 1
 sage: w.next()
 word: 00
 }}}

 I see two ways out: stop claiming that it is lexicographic, or remove the
 function. What do you think?

 P.S.: To whoever types "git blame" (like and did) and notices that I am
 the author of the function: please look at the whole commit, I only moved
 it to a different place `:-PPP`
