Or break it ;-)

I need to clean out my medicine cabinet and remove all the expired
meds. Because I was definitely taking something nasty when I
recommended (i & 0xffffff)!

When i is greater than 32 (which is less than 0xffffff) it will
overflow the addition. What I wanted was that we don't shift more than
24 bits. Where 2 ** 24 - 1 == 0xffffff.

That should be:

	val += ((int)str[i]) << (i % 25);

my bad :-/


To avoid the slow '%', I'll just use '& 0xf', as shifting it 16 times is
enough for this algorithm.

No need to send a new patch, I'll fix it, as it was my brain
fart. I'll review the rest of this patch too and apply it if nothing
sticks out.

Thanks!
