+1, and +1 for this refactoring.
I just saw a minor issue in a comment while reviewing the patch:
[...]
+ /* Is there space in the hash? If not, enlarge it. */
/* Double the capacity of the array (capacity must stay a power of 2!) */
- newcap = (oldcap > 0) ? oldcap * 2 : RESARRAY_INIT_SIZE;
[...]
The existing comment is kept as-is, but it should mention that it's
now the hash capacity that is increased.
