[Python-Dev] Unicode character name hashing

I just had a rather unhappy epiphany this morning.
F1, and f2 in ucnhash.c might not work on machines where sizeof(long) != 32
bits.

When sizeof(long) != 32 bits, x will probably not overflow like it did on my
IA-32 box thereby possibly giving the code fits.
If some kind soul could test the ucnhash.c stuff running on the Cray Tim's
always talking about, and an Alpha running Unix that'd be awesome.

Thanks,
Bill
