I can't do this. The Collection-routines are for general use, not only
for one specific library. There are at least 10 different kinds of
collections in Win4Eu.
However, if anyone can optimize the routines, without changing the
functionality, I would really be grateful. Collections are used a lot
in Win4Eu, especially on the lowest level.
