I would have said M4, but that doesn't really change anything.

I know this might sound brutal, but in hindsight the hash equivalence 
work was not a good idea with the current resourcing.

I fully understand why it is attractive to properly fix a long-standing

been the difference between an OKish workload and working more than
you should have done.

From my side the problem is that my initial patch is what I can do with 
reasonable effort.
