+1   Removing unnecessary variables defined within a
statement-expression is indeed something we want, and your suggestion of
a macro calling a static inline is, IMHO, spot-on.

The same should be done for hash_init().

And yes, a break would be welcome in that loop: no need to continue if
we encounter a non-empty hlist.

Thanks,

Mathieu
