OK. Maciej has always told me that a problem with the Unladen benchmarks
was that some of them had artificial loop unrolling, etc., so I had assumed
you had simply fixed those instances instead of creating entirely new
benchmarks.

I know that directory wasn't changed, but I also noticed that some
benchmarks had the same name, which is why I thought they were forked
versions of the same-named Unladen benchmarks.
