Just for the record, I did not use the idea with Hamming distances. It 
has been on my to try list for a while, but so far I have not tested it. 
The main reason why I am a bit interested to try something like it is 
that I might get a more uniform distribution over the available memory. 
However, I expect only very small gains. Collisions are currently not an 
issue as my program uses 88-bit hashes. (Also notice that if collisions 
would become an issue this is easily detected by other properties that 
are stored in the TT.)
