Thanks for providing that C program. I played around with it and
noticed a small typo which I fixed up. I'm attaching the version
I've used at the end of the mail.

Maybe there is a thinko on my part but the results I'm getting are
very impressive. I have a very hard time to produce more than a
single hash conflict for sequences up to 0..2^27.

I also tried with a pseudo random value for the u32 part of the key
instead of the sequence  number and got the same results.

I'm running it like this:
for i in $(seq 1 27); do \
echo $i: && ./jhash $((2**$i)) | uniq -D | uniq -c \
done
