This would be a run-time issue, unless you're asking the compiler to verify your hash algorithm at compile-time :-p  I'd actually like to have some introspection functionality so I could find out the average chain length, max chain length, etc (basically what's provided by the unordered containers from C++11), but the user would still have to query this stuff to know that something was wrong.
