Could you fold the overlong line here?

Perhaps rename "hash" to "hash_algo"?  I know that it is very
unlikely for a variable whose name is 'hash' to be mistaken as a raw
hash value when its type is "int" (as opposed to say char *), but
still.  I wouldn't be saying this if its type were an "enum
hash_algo" or something like that.

This one _is_ good.

So is this one.
