`map-keymap` takes a hidden, undocumented and as far as I can tell =
never-used third argument, SORT-FIRST. I think it's safe to remove =
without first deprecating it, as it really wasn't there in the first =
place.

It doesn't even work very well. The ordering function used for sorting =
is (and has always been) broken.

Anyone against?

What will we gain by this removal?

What we always gain from removal of things unused. Less code to =
maintain. Less code to build. Smaller source files. Smaller binary =
files. Lower memory usage.

And in this case, code that never worked properly to begin with (because =
nobody used it).

FWIW, I feel uneasy removing code that causes no harm.
