I have generalized the hash a bit. There is now a variant that can C
strings as keys too.
But what I always wanted to know is: do we really need the HASH_ENTRY as
storage for hash items, or just PMCs as Array/PerlArray does? I think
that the entry adds some overhead (type + union = 3 or 4 words) to hash
usage, the more, when only PMCs (or pointers) will be stored in the hash.
