===============================================================================
- add PANAMA hash algorithm.
- add 64 bit version of Tiger.
- add all unbroken hash algorithms from Paulo Barreto's "Hashing
Function Lounge". In April 2004 these were: Cellhash, Parallel
FFT-Hash, Subhash.

- add a generic support for hash functions built upon block ciphers
(Matyas-Meyer-Oseas, Miyaguchi-Preneel, Davies-Meyer, Abreast
Davies-Meyer, Tandem Davies-Mayer, etc).
- It is possible to build block ciphers from hash functions (search
the web for "Luby Rackoff" or MDC). Shouldn't mhash contain appropriate
routines?
- If there are any MAC functions in the world, that are not built upon
existing block ciphers or hash functions, they might be added to
mhash. What about MAA?
