I have a package that needs the 'search' library from sysVR2
(and later I presume)
it looks for "search.h"
"search" used to allow one to build and search a tree of arbitrary items

I found paul Vixie's AVL tree routines in the  archive,
and maybe I was thinking of them but I remmeber
the docs saying "This is a drop in replacement..."
and that's not true for the AVL stuff.


does anyone know of the replacement library?
I remember there WAS one, but I've been scanning the archives 
and haven't found it yet.
