[REBOL] Efficient binary functions Re:

Hi, Phil...
I'm quite embarrased to say that the best I've come up with is
>> v1: #{01}
== #{01}
>> v2: #{03}
== #{03}
>> v3: #{44}
== #{44}
>> v0: #{} foreach v reduce [v1 v2 v3] [append v0 v] v0
== #{010344}
(Obviously this could be wrapped in a nicely-named function...)
All of the obvious things I've tried fall prey to the old "binary
values converted to strings in a surprising and mostly useless way"
landmine discussed on this list a few days back!
