randomized hashmaps to prevent DOS attacks

hashmap are not randomized, so that it is possible to forge fake headers that 
will always go into the same bucket.
try 'curl http://78.230.4.96/hashes.asis' via tinyproxy and without it to 
convince you (~8 MB of headers). I'll remove this url as soon as bug is 
accepted...

attached patch should solve this. it's certainly perfectible, though
(autoconf for time() and rand() are missing...).

even with this patch, it takes ages. maybe headers should be sanitized
before hiting the buckets...
