Hi Szabolcs,

I've added text sizes for all of the functions, building them using
these compilers:
GCC: (Ubuntu 5.2.1-22ubuntu2) 5.2.1 20151010
Clang: 3.7.0-2ubuntu1 (tags/RELEASE_370/final) (based on LLVM 3.7.0)
None of the functions use any data/bss, so I've only added the text
sizes. As some implementations have some code reuse between tsearch()
and tdelete(), I've done both separate and combined builds of these
two functions.
The sizes of the glibc implementation is an estimate, as I didn't
build that one manually.

Exactly.

Yes. Comparisons are rather expensive (one callback per comparison),
so we'd better optimize for a tree that is as flat as possible.

It was the latest version in Git, using -O2.

Yes. All of the tests were run on Linux, using glibc. Only the
tsearch()/tdelete() implementations are different between tests. They
all use glibc's standard malloc().
