Re: Congratulations! we have got hash function screwed up

[Hans Reiser]

Fixing hash collisions in V3 to do them the way V4 does them would 
create more bugs and user disruption than the current bug we have all 
lived with for 5 years until now.  If someone thinks it is a small 
change to fix it, send me a patch.  Better by far to fix bugs in V4, 
which is pretty stable these days.
