Summary: Set constructor to use .update()

Initial Comment:
Using .update() necessitates more extreme 
optimization to avoid spoiling the use case of 
uniquifying sequences.

The optimization is to factor the try/excepts out of 
the inner-loop.  The only part that gives me the willies 
is the resumption of the for-loop.

Sorry to bug you with the patch manager, but it 
seems to be the best tool for communicating specific 
code change proposals.  At least this one is short.

Needs a little more testing.
Will re-assign back when fixed-up.
