The original code checked for pointers being equal among
other conditions. This was an (almost) straight conversion
to a comparison function for rbtree. Do you mean casting
the pointer to long? Yes, e.g. on 64-bit Windows it wouldn't
work. Back to plain pointer comparison.

No, but I think it's obvious. Now we have one TreeCell
where we had one ListCell.
