That's a good idea. However my time ran out (as you might have
noticed). So I just added my functions to the search category for now.
I'll see about that "data structures" category later when there's more
time. If somebody else with time likes to do it, go ahead.

I just commited the hcreate(), hdestroy() and hsearch() and _hash2v()
functions. I did not change the categories of the other functions.

Right now I just noticed that hcreate(), hdestroy() and hsearch() are
the _only_ entries in the search category. Just after commiting of
course. So putting them there wasn't that brilliant. Input?

I also had created another test case tests/libc/posix/search/hfill.c
that you haven't seen before which I commited too.


Right,
