Subject: Re: [PATCH 00/13] rbtree updates


Looks nice.. How about something like the below on top.. I couldn't
immediately find a sane reason for the grand-parent to always be red in
the insertion case.

+ *  4) Both children of every red node are black
+ *  5) Every simple path from a given node to any of its descendant leaves
