> - stdlib: wrong order in Set.fold (PR#3161)

Why an order for the fold operator ? The fold operator is used in many
parallel applications and in these cases, the order is not specified (it is
done in parallel). Peraps add a new operator to the interface (scan ? or
async_fold ?) where the order is unspecified (another set's operators like
choose do not specified the order). In this case, it would be possible to
write a true parallel implementation of fold (every process "folds" a part
of the set and them they "fold" there tempory results) .

Frédéric Gava.
