C5 doesn't seem to overlap very well with .NET 3.5, on the conceptual level
(doing stuff with LINQ is probably usually preferable to doing it with C5's
custom methods) as well as the implementational level (the Fun delegates,
HashSet, etc), so unless Mono compatibility was important, I'd wait for C6.
Switching to a third-party library to get around the problems of inheritance
coupling seems a bit rash, and I can't see how C5 solves the potential
variance issues. Or maybe I'm being too judgmental?
