Two glitches:

 - Didn't you mean hashcmp()?

 - Don't you have an explicit ->delete_ref field that is a more
   direct way, than relying on the convention "updating to 0{40}
   is to delte", to express this?

In other words, wouldn't it be more like

        return !(*u1)->delete_ref - !(*u2)->delete_ref;

or something (I may be wrong about the sign, tho---I didn't think
carefully)?
