A while ago I played around with gperf (GNU perfect hash function
generator), abusing the keyword lookup in parser/keyword.c as playground.
Now before I delete this I was wondering if this would perhaps be of use
to the general public. I don't know how huge the speed advantage of this
is, I'm sure the parser/scanner speed is the least of our problems. But I
thunk especially ecpg could benefit from this. Btw., gperf is used by GCC,
so it's not a toy.
