  set_properties needs to deal with the interval property cache.

  It is assumed that for any interval plist, a property appears
  only once on the list.  Although some code i.e., remove_properties,
  handles the more general case, the uniqueness of properties is
  necessary for the system to remain consistent.  This requirement
  is enforced by the subrs installing properties onto the intervals.  */
