Scheme
The program is in R7RS Small Scheme plus some SRFIs. You can run the program also under CHICKEN Scheme 5.3.0 if you have the necessary eggs installed. For CHICKEN you will have to compile with the "-R r7rs" option.
For the k-way merge, I implemented the tournament tree algorithm.

This uses the -bisect option to lsearch in order to do an efficient binary search (in combination with -index end, which means that the search is indexed by the end of the sublist).

# Merge the piles; no suitable builtin, alas
