--- Comment #2 from Salvatore Sanfilippo <anti...@gmail.com> ---
Thanks for your comments Philippe! Glad that implementing this feature would
not require too much work. About the false negatives, indeed that's possible,
but fortunately only projects with this requirements would pay such a price,
and with 64 bit pointers the probability of a collision is pretty low (but not
as low as finding a random 8 bytes string, which is a negligible probability.
Because most pointers in normal systems will use common byte values for the
most significant part, like 0xff). I'm more worried about the overhead when the
feature is not used, I hope it is kinda non measurable or extremely low so that
the option can be considered for inclusion. Cheers.
