I couldn't get the AES-based hash function to compile.  There
was a complaint about not being able to inline an 'always-inline'
function.  I played around with it for a while but didn't get
anywhere.
 

Not that using my reference hash is particularly important (I needed it
as a quick way to get something I could rely on; you already have
something else with similar properties) but it's still worth
investigation.

There are two possibilities:
1. gcc compiler's -march=native logic incorrectly detects CPU type on
your computer.
2. you CPU really does not support AES instructions.

If the former, you can force compiler's hand with -maes flag.
If the later, then you can compile it, but wouldn't be able to run my
"reference" hash function on this particular computer

What CPU are you using?
