It would be trivial to layer this on top of the rb-tree egg.  Since
all is in memory, you don't have to bother with the subtleties of
constructing a "proper" lazy sequence: just use fold(i) to get an
ordinary list and then use list->lazy-seq.

The only issue is that the rb-tree egg is GPL3, but that shouldn't
matter for testing purposes.  You could also ask the author, Ivan Raikov,
for a license exception.
