    I haven't had a chance to test it yet, but it looks pretty good.  My
    one issue is with the hash function... 32 bits isn't enough, I would
    prefer a 64 bit hash (as a minimum).  This is from my experience with
    Diablo where even good 32 bit hash functions produced collisions on 
    news message-id's (and even 64 bit hash functions in some cases).
