  * units.  On the first time through the loop we get the "leftover bytes"
- * (strlen % 8).  On every other iteration, we perform 8 HASHC's so we handle
- * all 8 bytes.  Essentially, this saves us 7 cmp & branch instructions.  If
- * this routine is heavily used enough, it's worth the ugly coding.
