I think this suggestion is misguided, and the patch itself needs
rethinking. Instead of doing this, let's hack dynahash.c itself
to substitute a shim like this when it's told function == tag_hash and
keysize == sizeof(uint32). Then we can remove any similar shims that
already exist, and possibly end up with a net savings of code rather than
adding more.
