Things to do to hash.c:
Always use curly braces around statements in if/else/while/do/etc.
that span more than a line -- even around multiline simple statements
or single-line simple statements preceded by a comment line.
Never have lines longer than 80 chars.
Remove ^L characters. We don't want/need such crutches.
Get a good (smart) pagination filter. I have one (a perl script)
that usually does a decent job for me -- I called it something
like stdc-print and think I sent you an early verison.
I don't like the name `cursor'. I much prefer short names
like `p' for index variables. I doubt I'll change all of them,
but thought you should know why some will probably end up changing.
#define USE_OBSTACK somewhere
Fix this comment. Depending on system and application...
Mention fragmentation.
+#if USE_OBSTACK
+ /* Whenever obstacks are used, it is possible to allocate all overflowed
+ entries into a single stack, so they all can be freed in a single
+ operation. It is not clear if the speedup is worth the trouble. */
+ struct obstack entry_stack;
+#endif
