Matthew Flatt df0651c277 convert functional hash tables from red--black to AVL trees
AVL trees to tend to be shorter, which means a faster
search and insertion. The potential benefit of a red--black
tree's fewer rotations doesn't matter, I think, for a functional
variant, where you have to reconstruct a spine to the root,
anyway. The difference is small for typical tables, though it
can be as much as 50% for a large table with keys inserted in
order. And since the AVL code is also much simpler, why not?

The Racket programming language
===============================

Important executables:

* DrRacket: Racket's integrated development environment (start here!).

* Racket: the main command-line entry point for running racket programs
  and scripts.

* GRacket: the GUI-mode Racket executable.

* raco: Racket's command-line toolset.


More Information
----------------

Racket comes with extensive documentation: use DrRacket's `Help' menu,
or run `raco docs'.  Also, visit us at http://racket-lang.org/ for more
Racket resources.

Instructions for building Racket from source are in src/README.
