-* GHC makes heavy use of sets and finite maps.  Up till now it has used
-  its own home-grown `UniqFM` and `FiniteMap` modules.  Milan Straka (visiting as
-  an intern from the Czech Republic) has 
-  * Made GHC use the `containers` package instead, which happily makes 
-    compilation go a few percent faster.
-  * Developed some improvments to `containers` that makes it go faster still.
-    So `UniqFM` and `FiniteMap` are finally dead.  Hurrah for Hackage!
