If you are hashing anyway, just hash the hash :) In other words, this 
function:

auto foo(T)(T t)
{
    static struct R {}
    return R;
}

would result in a return type of a hash, with no care about whether T 
was a hashed symbol or not. This puts a cap on the size of the name, it 
would never get that big.
