 * Name: hcreate
 *
 * Description:
 *   The hcreate() function creates a new hashing table with nel elements.
 *   The hashing table will be used by subsequent calls to hsearch() with
 *   the same htab argument.  The hashing table is initialized with nel
 *   hashing buckets.
 *
 *   The hcreate_r() function is the reentrant version of hcreate().
 *
 * Returned Value:
 *   If successful, hcreate() and hcreate_r() return 1; otherwise, they
 *   return 0.

 * Name: hdestroy
 *
 * Description:
 *   The hdestroy() function destroys the hashing table specified by htab.
 *   The hashing table is destroyed only if there are no entries in the
 *   table.  The hashing table cannot be used again until hcreate() or
 *   hcreate_r() is called.
 *
 *   The hdestroy_r() function is the reentrant version of hdestroy().

 * Name: hsearch
 *
 * Description:
 *   The hsearch() function searches the hashing table specified by htab
 *   for an entry with a key matching that of item.  If such an entry is
 *   found, hsearch() returns a pointer to the entry's data object.  If
 *   such an entry is not found, hsearch() creates a new entry using the
 *   key and data objects specified by item and returns a pointer to the
 *   new entry's data object.
 *
 *   The hsearch_r() function is the reentrant version of hsearch().
 *
 * Returned Value:
 *   If successful, hsearch() and hsearch_r() return a pointer to the data
 *   object of the matching or newly created entry.  Otherwise, they return
 *   NULL.
