Interesting. Will this work in the kernel? I have a bunch of code to introduce which uses sys/tree.h there.

Yes, it will work in the kernel just fine. The main reason I didn't make it sys/rb.h is that sys/tree.h already exists (and I haven't bothered to write a manual page either). There is nothing fundamentally wrong with the sys/tree.h implementation, except that it takes more data structure space, which was hurting malloc quite a bit.
