Hi, I ported two this functions to mir-algorithm ~master: need them for work ASAP (License and Copyright are preserved). My small report:

 - Two algorithmic bugs in multiwayUnion: it is one line function, you can easily find them.
 - One truly significant algorithmic optimisation bug in multiwayMerge: see mir-algorithm ~master for fix.
 - Three kinds of bugs related to attributes and BetterC: ditto.

Sorry, can not fill the issues.

It is weird to duplicate Phobos code/API/functionality. Hope one day it will be split into DUB packages.

Best,
Ilya

Ah, so you're just giving heads up that you added these to mir-algorithm because you needed to fix some bugs that were in the phobos implementation and didn't have time to do it yourself.

At least it should be interesting task for a student to find two bugs in his code [1] and optimise Andrei's code (popFront). Then he can check it with Mir Algorithm.

Attributes requires a lot of work and conversations because of required breaking changes or code large duplication.
