Opinions?
Why would we need another btree, when there is lib/rbtree.c? Or
does yours do something fundamentally different?
It is not red-black tree, it is b+ tree.
It might be better to use the prefix "bptree" to help prevent
confusion. A quick google search on "bp-tree" reveals only the perl B
+-tree module "Tree::BPTree", a U-Maryland Java CS project on B+-
trees, and a news article about a "BP tree-top protest".
