   *	  appears in the stack if and only if some node in its left subtree
   *	  is nearer the top of the stack.
   *
   * When we initialized the iterator state (in `treap_start_iter' above), we

   * nothing, the stack is empty, and there are no nodes to visit.)  This

   * Firstly, the current node is removed from the stack, because we're about
   * to visit it, and visited nodes don't belong on the stack.  Then there

   *   * If the current node's right subtree is not empty, then the next node
   *	 to be visited is the leftmost node in that subtree.  All of the

   *	 subtree consists of its descendants, so none of them are already on
   *	 the stack; and they're all greater than the current node, and
   *	 therefore haven't been visited.  Therefore, we must push the current
   *	 node's right child, its /left/ child, and so on, proceeding
   *	 leftwards until we fall off the bottom of the tree.
   *
   *   * Otherwise, we've finished traversing some subtree.  Either we are
