 | According to the specification, merge should return a *freshly*
 | *allocated* list as its result.
 |
 | But the reference implementation is:
 | (define (merge a b less? . opt-key)
 |   (define key (if (null? opt-key) identity (car opt-key)))
 |   (cond ((null? a) b)
 | 	((null? b) a)
 |
 | 	...which is trying to avoid allocating as much as possible.
 |
 | Solution: either remove the "freshly allocated" requirement in the
 | specification, or to use (map identity lst) where needed in the
 | reference implementation.

SRFI-Editors: Please remove the words "freshly allocated" from
	      SRFI-95.
