  Description     : Perl extension for 32 bit Jenkins Hashing Algorithm

The Digest::JHash module allows you to use the fast JHash hashing algorithm
developed by Bob Jenkins from within Perl programs. The algorithm takes as
input a message of arbitrary length and produces as output a 32-bit "message
digest" of the input in the form of an unsigned long integer.
