Hi,
Rereading the api, it seems that a pointer to the (key) value
to be hashed is needed, instead of the value itself.

I'm trying to use an 8-digit integer as the key, but the key
only exists as a local variable in a function that returns.

I need something like:

  hash_table_insert(hash,89798053,"a string");
