I found that some doubled words had snuck back into projects from which
I'd already removed them, so now there's a "syntax-check" makefile rule in
gnulib to help prevent recurrence.
Running the command below spotted a few in git, too:
git ls-files | xargs perl -0777 -n \
-e 'while (/\b(then?|[iao]n|i[fst]|but|f?or|at|and|[dt])\s+\1\b/gims)' \
-e '{$n=($` =~ tr/\n/\n/ + 1); ($v=$&)=~s/\n/\\n/g;' \
-e 'print "$ARGV:$n:$v\n"}'

Suppose I try the following:
struct int_node *node = node_pointer(node_alloc(1));
node->n = 5;
treap_insert(&root, node);
printf("%d\n", node->n);
Usually the result will be 5. But since treap_insert draws memory
from the node pool, if the caller is unlucky then (1) the node pool
will be full and (2) realloc will be forced to move the node pool to
find room, so the node address becomes invalid and the result of
dereferencing it is undefined.
So we ought to use offsets in preference to pointers for references
that would remain valid after a call to treap_insert. Tweak the
signature to hint at a certain special case: since the inserted node
can change address (though not offset), as a convenience teach
treap_insert to return its new address.
So the motivational example could be fixed by adding "node =".
struct int_node *node = node_pointer(node_alloc(1));
node->n = 5;
node = treap_insert(&root, node);
printf("%d\n", node->n);
Based on a true story.

Provide macros to generate a type-specific treap implementation and
various functions to operate on it. It uses obj_pool.h to store memory
nodes in a treap. Previously committed nodes are never removed from
the pool; after any *_commit operation, it is assumed (correctly, in
the case of svn-fast-export) that someone else must care about them.
Treaps provide a memory-efficient binary search tree structure.
Insertion/deletion/search are about as about as fast in the average
case as red-black trees and the chances of worst-case behavior are
vanishingly small, thanks to (pseudo-)randomness. The bad worst-case
behavior is a small price to pay, given that treaps are much simpler
to implement.
