there's nothing 0.6 specific about this?

Only in that they aren't (/won't be) in Base in 0.6. I just followed the text from QuadGK and Primes.

will DataStructures use base's copy on 0.5, or define its own equivalent version? I think either would be fine in this case, as long as you aren't overwriting methods or otherwise causing issues or conflicts

It defines its own version using the code as of 0.6 (with a single slight modification to make it work on 0.4). Should be entirely equivalent to what's in Base in 0.5.

Note that the PR title is "WIP" only because the changes have not been incorporated into DataStructures; this is otherwise good to go I think. Once that's done I'll change the title here to "RFC" to reflect its mergeability. |

This PR is the Base companion to JuliaCollections/DataStructures.jl#238; it removes the entire Collections module and makes all functions currently exported from that module error, in a similar fashion to QuadGK and Primes.
This should not be merged until the DataStructures PR is merged and the package tagged.
