ok, finally got around to that. The git mirror now has branches tbsaunde/bitmap tbsaunde/bitmap2 and tbsaunde/bitvec. I think the first two actually aren't very valuable, trying add a ctor / dtor to bitmap_head itself seems like a poor idea bound to run into some strange use of bitmaps. It seems a lot safer to add a auto_bitmap and move things over to it. On the other hand the bitvec branch is trying to build something sbitmap like, but trying to use vec to manage the storage instead of doing it manually. I'm not sure why I didn't finish that idea.
