       Heap::Elem::RefRev is used to wrap object reference values into an element that can be managed on a heap.
       Each referenced object must have a method cmp which can compare itself with any of the other objects that
       have references on the same heap.  These comparisons must be consistant with normal arithmetic.  The top
       of the heap will have the largest (according to cmp) element still remaining.  (See Heap::Elem::Ref if
       you want the heap to always return the smallest element.)

       The details of the Elem interface are described in Heap::Elem.

       The details of using a Heap interface are described in Heap.
