Just to add to Jason's comment, would it be better to just leave out 
EMPTY_SORTED_SET from this patch? It would be nice not to have to load 
yet another class when Collections is first used and I assume we would 
encourage folks to use Collections.emptySortedSet() anyway so that they 
get type safety.
